Well-bred filly who is now 0-9 and looking exposed, but was runner-up in her only previous handicap and she beat all bar an unexposed favourite in a 1m novice last time; can be keen out in front and perhaps this belated return to 7f will work.

Form & Verdict
Brother to Group 1-placed sprinter Twilight Calls; 8-1, won four-runner 6f AW Wolverhampton novice on belated debut last month; that was a weak race and he now has a 7lb penalty but has potential.

Sole win came on debut at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) in January; beaten nearly 2l when fourth of nine at Thirsk (7f, good) in July but he was never involved following a slow start at Doncaster 19 days ago; dropped another 1lb and the visor is added on this return to AW.

6f AW win on debut came in a weak race; yet to make a big impact in five handicaps but he came from off the pace when a respectable fourth at Thirsk (7f, good) and was beaten less than 2l; could be dangerous if he can build on that.

130,000gns yearling; sister to a useful 7f winner; this is a late debut and she's the sole newcomer, but she might not have to be anything out of the ordinary to figure.

Best run of her six was the Southwell fourth on second start (6f); hasn't been that threatening in three handicaps (7f/1m), latterly tried in a tongue-tie (absent here); must raise her game.

Well treated on the form of April's Southwell novice fourth (6f) but no threat on either handicap start latterly (7f, 1m) and tongue-tie is now reached for; switch to turf no concern on pedigree, at least.

C&D win for Jamie Osborne last April; slow start for current stable but he returned to form after a four-month break when second in a similar C&D event two weeks ago; solid claims if in the same form this time.
