Running well in defeat in recent months, including over C&D; should remain competitive but this is a step back up in class.

Made a good return to turf when narrowly denied over 5f at Bath (good) 13 days ago; nudged back up 3lb but remains 1lb below the mark he defied on AW last autumn; needs considering.

Form & Verdict
Near miss over C&D in June; only midfield in stronger company on his next two starts but showed he was still a major force at Class 5 level with his last-gasp success at Bath 13 days ago (5.5f, good to firm); 4lb rise manageable; set to go well again.

Front-runner; having a good season, winning twice on good or slower (handles any ground); 4lb better off with Treacherous on their latest Bath run and she should make another bold bid.

Connies Rose

J: Rossa Ryan

T: Grace Harris

Front-runner who is much better known as a sprinter, but won over C&D in 2022 and looked suited by return to this trip when close third here (good to soft; just behind Too Much Trevor) last week; back in action before 1lb nudge takes effect and will be fine on the faster ground; respected.

Front-runner who has gained seven of her ten career wins at Chepstow; went backwards from a sound reappearance effort at Bath (extended 5f) when last of six over a bare 5f there 12 days later but a revival can't be ruled out back at Chepstow; raced exclusively at sprint trips since 2023 but won over C&D in 2022.

Front-runner whose ten wins on turf have included two over this C&D; possibly needed her first run for 179 days when fifth of 11 here over 5.5f last time and has to be of interest now dropping back in grade.

Form & Verdict
Showed promise in five runs for Charles Hills; made a winning stable debut at Bath 13 days ago (5f, good to firm), appearing to have more in hand than the winning margin of a short head (inexperienced apprentice on board); partnered by another 7lb claimer tonight but capable of a big run up just 2lb.

Seemed to respond well to first-time visor when third at Chelmsford (6f) in January but she's not come close to that form in three runs since; her blindfold was removed late at Lingfield last month but she's now 1-27 and others are preferred.

Form & Verdict
Confirmed the promise of her Kempton debut (1m) by winning a 5.5f fillies' novice at Bath in April (soft); not at the same level at Lingfield (6f, AW) last month but she makes her handicap debut with the prospect of further improvement; new trip and ground to deal with this time but foolish to discount.
