First foal; dam 10.5f-1m6f winner (including Listed; RPR 106), sister to 1m4f Listed winner Baby Pink, half-sister to smart 1m-1m3f winner Christophermarlowe; probably won't be seen to best effect until tackling longer trips but riding arrangements suggests she's the pick of Ollie Sangster's three runners in this.

Stepped up on last month's Chepstow debut (6f, good) by finishing fourth of nine over C&D two weeks ago (good to firm); may not come into her own until tackling 7f+ but she's likely to carry on progressing.

By Wootton Bassett out of 10.5f-1m6f winner (RPR 106); that points to longer trips but she did show significant ability when fourth of six in Chepstow maiden (6f, good; weak 10-1) 17 days ago; others in this have shown more.

11-4, cosily made all in maiden at Chepstow (6f, good) on her debut 25 days ago; this daughter of Churchill holds a Lowther entry here and merits serious consideration despite conceding weight all round.

Bred to be a speedy 2yo but did not look straightforward and showed only minor promise when well-held fourth of seven here (5f, good to soft) nine days ago; needs to take a good step forward today.

Runner-up in two Goodwood handicaps (5f, soft/good) in June but she didn't really fire at Ascot (sixth of nine) two weeks ago; now drops back in grade but overall record is 1-15 and others are more persuasive.

Solid fourth over 6f at Leicester three weeks ago was the latest in a series of good runs; whether she is ahead of her mark remains a moot point though.

Her fifth of 12 over C&D in June was a fair effort and she bettered that when going close at Ffos Las (7.5f, good) a fortnight ago; gets a 2lb nudge for that but she's in the picture.

Having only third run on turf when second at Haydock (1m, good; unraced on softer) and she came from some way back to go close at Wolverhampton (8.6f, AW), the scene of her sole success; strongly considered.

Pounced to break her duck over C&D (beat Blue Celestial by half-a-length) on penultimate start; gave a good account of herself back on turf when second at Haydock (1m) subsequently; it's likely she'll be in the mix again with Rose Dawes retaining the ride.

Got up late to shed her maiden tag at the 12th attempt at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 18 days ago; comfortably held on both turf starts but it's too soon to suggest she won't prove as effective on the grass.
