Form & Verdict
Placed in a couple of 1m nurseries (turf/Tapeta) in September, but he's flopped in last two runs including a 13l defeat on Polytrack (1m2f) in November; blinkers are now added and he needs to get back on track after a short break.

3yo who returned to form in reapplied cheekpieces and a first-time tongue-tie (both retained) to win at Kempton (1m4f, Polytrack) last month; led on the line last time and this further increase in distance could be a positive; effective here and she's one to consider.

Course winner at 1m in February and she followed that with two close calls at the trip on Tapeta and turf; no progress since returning from a short break, though, and she has some holes in her case up in distance with returning cheekpieces replacing a visor and a tongue-tie added.

0-7 but she ran her best race so far when a close fourth in new equipment at Chelmsford (1m nursery) last month; that was eyecatching from off the pace and she's a big player if she can build on that.

Fair fourth in classified event here (7f, good to firm) on stable debut in June; this step back up in trip looks a positive but she's now 1-14 and still has something to prove on slow ground; mixed messages.

Finished in rear in three novice events during the summer; same result on handicap debut at Chelmsford (1m) last month but he got hampered in the closing stages and was only 3-1 for that race; still has potential and he's not ruled off 2lb lower than last time.
