Form & Verdict
Won twice on Tapeta last year (5f/6f) but does not have a good record on turf (0-4); moves back up in trip after struggling to get competitive on both 5f starts in May (albeit made good late headway on first occasion); on a good mark but others look safer.

9st 1lb

J: Darragh Keenan

T: Conrad Allen

Three-time winner at sprint trips; runner-up over 1m at Chelmsford in January and 1m2f hasn't suited on her last two starts; her reduced mark is a plus and cheekpieces are added, but others have more pressing claims.

Form & Verdict
Kept on gamely against nearside rail to win off reduced mark in first-time blinkers at Goodwood (6f, good) three weeks ago; can handle a 4lb rise if new headgear continues to have positive effort; respected.

Back to the same career-low mark she cashed in on in first-time blinkers at Goodwood in June (6f, good), progress having stalled again since; holds Connie's Rose and Papabella on last month's Leicester clash, albeit she was fairly well held herself; place rather than win claims.

Below her best in one run on good to soft and was taken out on account of soft ground early in the month, so could do with some drying weather; proved consistent since blinkers went on but needs to find a bit more from somewhere.

Grand-dam scored at 7f but this trip didn't look within compass yet on her opening two starts last November; just a par effort on this month's seasonal/handicap debut, and have to hope that was simply needed.

Form & Verdict
Unable to land a telling blow after awkward start at Chepstow (6f, good to firm) last month but wasn't beaten far in the end; might have gone close had a gap opened at the right time at Bath (5.7f, firm) two starts ago, and this stiff track ought to suit her; worth a second look.

Unexposed after only three runs and displayed significant improvement when close fourth in Lingfield maiden (7f, soft) last month, despite again hanging badly and looking wayward; might take another step forward if handling the drop back to 6f and much faster ground on this handicap debut.

Showed promise in her first few starts over sprint trips on turf/Tapeta, but she hasn't built on it despite a plummeting mark and an experiment with headgear; dam's side of pedigree suggests the step up in trip may suit, but drawn widest and needs a resurgence.
