2-4 so far this year, her latest win coming at Nottingham (1m, good to soft) in May; a 7lb rise looked to find her out back there (soft) the following month and is only 1lb lower now; may find others are better handicapped.

She has looked an improved performer this year, winning at Beverley on her reappearance (8.5f, good to soft) and adding a C&D fillies' handicap last month (good to soft); up in class and now taking on male opposition but she shouldn't be underestimated.

Son of Soldier Hollow is much improved since sent handicapping, scoring at Wolverhampton (9.5f) before just edged out in a tactical contest at Catterick (1m4f) two weeks ago; he has more to offer and rates a big player.

Progressive sort who won four times last year and has kicked on again this term, landing a four-runner handicap at Lingfield (1m6f, good) in May and third of 20 under 5lb penalty in the Northumberland Plate (2m, AW; Kirchner second) four weeks ago; effectively on the same mark as last time; good chance.

Scored at Southwell (1m6f, AW) last October and has been placed four times this year; may have found the drop back in trip against him when fifth of six at Leicester (1m4f, good to firm) last month; cheekpieces return to replace blinkers but he may find this trip on the sharp side.
