Form & Verdict
Won her only 2yo start (1m, heavy) and she's been a quiet improver in defeat since; latest start was handicap at Sandown (1m6f, good; 33-1) in which she finished on the heels of the winner Synergism and saw the trip out well; off an unchanged mark, she may well be in the argument.

First two wins were on soft and heavy; has improved with each run this term, last time dealing with fast ground to beat Knight Templar at Sandown (1m6f); a 3lb rise isn't too damaging and she's hard to knock.

Her best form has come on slower than good and she looks on a fair mark when granted such conditions; latest Newbury third (2m, good to firm) was a good effort as she was keeping on well before being hampered by the winner 120 yards from home; each-way claims despite the likely drying conditions.

Effective here; goes well on testing ground, as he showed again when winning at Ffos Las (1m6f; stays 2m+) in September on latest start; 3lb rise today is far less concerning than a move away from soft or heavy ground; big player if conditions are in his favour.

Fair form over about 1m4f on last three starts, probably best when making most at Musselburgh (good to soft) on penultimate outing; ran creditably in cheekpieces latest and they are retained; needs improvement on this handicap debut over new trip but he's not ruled out.

Upwardly mobile 5yo who seemed suited by the step up to 2m when winning Listed race at Newmarket (good) last autumn; ran creditably against male rivals when 8l third of eight in Group 3 Sagaro at Ascot on return; today's drop back in distance isn't an obvious positive but she may have more in the tank and should give a good account of herself.

Dual Flat winner for Ollie Sangster, including at Salisbury (1m4f, good to firm) last May; has mostly been hurdling for this yard and he's been getting better in that sphere, a June win followed by solid second the following month; last two Flat starts for this stable will need improving on, however, and soft ground generates a query.
