20th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
This is a belated handicap debut on her 11th start but she's exposed now and, while there's been more than enough this year at up to 1m to confirm that this 5f 2yo Listed winner has trained on, it's easy to envisage a handful being more kindly treated. |

3rd May 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
8st 8lb |
Her best efforts last season were a Listed win at York (5f, good) in May and close second in Group 3 at Ascot (6f, good to firm) in July; reappeared with fair fourth in Fred Darling (Group 3) last month but her form has been a bit up and down so far and she needs more progress at this new trip. |

C&D win on her debut last July; not progressed since and she was well beaten on her handicap debut at Ripon last month; dropping down the weights but needs a major revival. |

Well held at odds-on on her Polytrack comeback in March before another disappointing effort last time (Group 3), when giving herself no chance of seeing out 7f after pulling hard in front; now has to prove she's up to this sort of mark. |

Often highly tried after her winning debut at Newbury, unplaced in Group 3s on three occasions; those runs sandwich a good fourth in a nursery at York's Ebor meeting off this mark; stable in fine form and she should be fine on AW; one to consider. |

280,000gns yearling; sent off 14-1 for her Newbury debut (6f, good) four weeks ago, but belied those odds with a cosy victory (first two clear); not sure how strong the form is, but the style was taking and she is one for the shortlist. |

Improving filly who held her own in a Group 3 at Salisbury last time (6f, good to soft) and it's unlikely that the principals gave their true running when beaten next time (fourth is a solid yardstick); strong form claims and drying conditions are welcomed. |

11th Oct 2024 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Comparatively experienced, having raced six times; takes on some promising rivals in this field but brings useful form, having gone close in the Dick Poole at Salisbury (6f, good to soft) most recently; 1-1 over 7f (Newmarket nursery win) and can't be dismissed. |

Landed an Ascot novice (6f, good) in July and returned to winning form in a Newmarket nursery (7f, good) last time, but she has twice finished out of the frame in races won by Magic Mild; more needed. |

9st 4lb |
0-9 since debut win last May but has been running well of late, most recently 3l second of five at Sandown (7f, good to firm) behind an unexposed and well-bred winner; might not be far away. |

Comparatively exposed, being 0-8 since debut win, but is in form having performed well in 6f handicaps the last twice; latest effort suggests this return to 7f is worth exploring. |

26th May 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Often highly tried last season, usually in a hood; everything went wrong on her AW comeback and she's best judged on her latest Newmarket second, which came in a less-competitive handicap against her own sex but which gives her each-way claims. |

20th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Relinquished her unbeaten record in the Group 1 Fillies' Mile last October; impressive debut winner over 7f (sole run on fast ground) and evidently not short of speed, having coped well with 6f in the Group 3 Dick Poole at Salisbury (good to soft) next time; however, elements of her pedigree suggest she'll stay 1m and the potential is there to revert back to Group races sooner rather than later; could easily have the class to cope with her big weight on handicap debut; first-time blinkers suggest connections mean business. |

11th Oct 2024 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |

One of several runners who are bidding to remain unbeaten; evidently not short of speed, having coped well with 6f in the Dick Poole at Salisbury (good to soft) last time, adding to her 7f Newmarket win; however, elements of pedigree suggest she'll stay 1m; has potential. |

Justified market strength when making all and winning easily on her Newmarket debut (7f, good to firm) last month; holds entries in the Rockfel and Fillies' Mile, but her pedigree suggests she should handle the shorter trip; high on list. |

Three starts, winning a Newbury maiden (6f, good) and a Catterick novice (7f, good to firm) with a 5l fourth in the Group 2 Oh So Sharp Stakes at Newmarket (7f, good to soft) in between; improvement is needed but she looks a good prospect for 1m and her trainer won this in 2021; not discounted. |

Verdict
Among the promising types is TABITI, who is the last of three interesting runners on the card for Ralph Beckett. Tabiti won in the style of a useful prospect at Newmarket and is taken to follow up. Jewelry, who created a similarly favourable impression at Newbury, is second choice ahead of Troia who has a similar profile to the selection. Betty Clover is comparatively exposed but brings the best rating, while several others can be viewed positively.[Steve Boow]
