Form & Verdict
Got up in the nick of time at Newbury (1m2f, good) in May and her free-going tendencies found her out badly when upped to 1m4f there (good to firm) four weeks later; after just five races, she could resume improvement.

Two wins and a second to show from four runs in handicaps and only narrowly failed to get up at Leicester the last time (1m2f, soft); if running to a similar level two months on then she'll be thereabouts; raised 4lb.

Form & Verdict
Four runs for George Boughey as a 2yo, failing to build on a promising debut; won her stable/seasonal debut in handicap at Hamilton (1m, good) last month but flopped off this 6lb higher mark over that same C&D 13 days later; her failure to go on last year is a nagging concern.

Made successful debut for this yard in a Hamilton handicap (1m, good) and even better the last twice, making the frame over C&D (good) and at Carlisle (1m1f, soft); mark hasn't really gone anywhere for those last two runs and cheekpieces are now added with Brandon Wilkie booked; solid claims.

Form & Verdict
Placed three times in a row early this year in 8.6f maiden, 1m2f handicap and 1m4f novice; last of eight back in a handicap (9.4f) in March when last seen; stable continues to go well and she's one to consider on turf debut.

Dual Yarmouth 1m2f winner on good to firm last summer, latterly off 3lb higher than today; fair third there on penultimate outing was easily her best of four runs this term; first run here and needs a second look.

Form & Verdict
Well back on first three starts but swept that aside when winning a six-runner race at Leicester (1m2f, good to firm; 4-1) four weeks ago on handicap debut, leading 2f out; scored with more authority than her winning margin suggests and looks of major interest with 3lb rise.

Form & Verdict
Improved with cheekpieces on Wolverhampton AW once switched to handicaps early this year, latterly with 9.4f win; ran creditably there next time but tailed off at Windsor (11.4f, good to soft) and well below form at Redcar (1m2f, soft); that leaves her with plenty to prove on turf.
