Lightly raced 4yo who won four times this summer (two over C&D) and returned to winning ways when getting up in the final strides here (5f, good) yesterday; she's 4lb higher in a hotter race today but is clearly thriving and could be bang there if this doesn't come too soon.

Making up for lost time this summer, winning four of her last five starts and doing well to come from an unpromising position over C&D 18 days ago; style of racing is making it hard for the handicapper to keep up and her pedigree offers hope there is more to come.

The drop to sprint trips has put his career firmly back on track, making all at Ayr (6f, good to firm) before bumping into a Group horse in waiting in the Shergar Cup here in August; returning to 5f proved no hindrance at Doncaster three weeks ago, always prominent and finding plenty for pressure; the ground was officially good but changed to soft afterwards and these conditions shouldn't hold any terrors; up another 6lb but it's unlikely he's reached his ceiling.
