Form & Verdict
Siblings include her connections' Ascot Gold Cup winner Big Orange; showed promise in her first two runs in the autumn before a last-gasp win over 8.6f here in November; returns after a break but she looks on a fair opening mark and should have more to offer on this step up to 1m4f; interesting contender on handicap debut.

Dual Wolverhampton AW winner (8.5f/1m4f) for Michael Bell, a hurdles winner in October and back on the Flat with three good runs this year, when facing a very stiff task in Listed race on latest; unraced beyond that 1m6f on Flat but she's half-sister to a staying celebrity in Big Orange, which heightens interest.

Dual Wolverhampton AW winner (8.5f/1m4f) for Michael Bell, a hurdles winner in October and back on the Flat with two good AW runs (1m2f/1m3f handicaps) this year; has a bit more to prove as turf performer on the Flat and also over this new trip, with a big step forward required at this level.

Dual Wolverhampton winner (8.5f/1m4f) for Michael Bell and won over hurdles at Ludlow (2m, good to firm) in October on her second start for this yard; caught the eye with a strong-finishing sixth of 12 at Lingfield (1m2f, AW) 22 days ago and will be suited by this extra furlong.

Form & Verdict
Justified support on handicap debut at Kempton (1m4f) last month and he's finished second in both runs since including a close call at Southwell last Saturday; up another 2lb but his penultimate run was over C&D and he's respected back at this track.

Form & Verdict
Too green to do himself justice in one turf run as a 2yo but he's found stacks of improvement with three wins on AW this year; up another 4lb after his handicap debut win at Kempton (1m3f) but he was strong at the finish and is open to progress on this step up to 1m4f; leading contender.

Three AW wins early in year, latest on handicap debut when upped to 1m3f; came up short over 1m4f in his three starts since, however, two on AW and one on good to firm, and the improvement seems to have run out of steam.

Three wins on AW this January/February, the first of which was at the track and the latest on handicap debut when upped to 1m3f at Kempton; latest two starts (1m4f) suggest that the improvement may have run out of steam but he returns to AW now after trying turf at York Dante meeting.

Three wins on AW this January/February, latterly on handicap debut when upped to 1m3f at Kempton, but that improvement ran out of steam when a close third of four at Wolverhampton (1m4f) on latest start; needs to resume progress on this second turf outing.

Form & Verdict
Improved form on handicap debut when scoring here (9.4f) in December but that was a narrow success and he's not gone on from that in two runs over 1m3f since; still unexposed after only six starts but he needs to kick on again to defy this mark.
