Form & Verdict
Won at Yarmouth (11.4f, soft) last October for Rae Guest and caught the eye when sixth in a first-time tongue-tie (retained) on stable/seasonal debut at Leicester (1m4f, good to firm) three weeks ago, when she travelled well but had to wait for a clear run; can build on that performance.

J: Liam Wright

Multiple turf winner at up to 11.5f; less effective on AW surfaces but her best such effort was when last tried at Kempton (1m3f, Polytrack) in May; if able to repeat that form she would have claims from this 5lb lower mark but she's not easy to predict.

Bar one blip she's been running well for George Scott and won over this trip at Haydock in April off the very same mark; last two runs weren't bad at all, having not got the run of things at Ripon and she raced freely when third at Catterick (1m4f).

Form & Verdict
Soundly beaten on his stable and seasonal debut at Brighton (1m4f) a fortnight ago but he may have needed that run and he had some useful form at up to 9.5f in France; wears a first-time tongue-tie and could be more competitive today now back down in trip; watch the betting.

Won twice early-season and better again when second in classy small-field races at Cheltenham and Wincanton, the latest a Grade 2; returned from a break with a win on the AW so his run in the Morebattle at Kelso goes down as disappointing; the return of a hood is no bad thing; enjoys good ground.

Maiden who returned from wind surgery to finish a respectable fifth on AW Flat and backed that up when 15l second in a 2m maiden hurdle at Southwell (soft) last month; a lesser effort in a handicap hurdle at Wetherby three weeks ago needs forgiving but he dips into a Class 6 for the first time now back on the Flat and has the ability to make his mark at this level; cheekpieces rejoin the tongue-tie.
