J: Sean D Bowen

T: Ollie Sangster

6f win on debut in France as 2yo; three close calls in 6f handicaps for new yard this year but a serious turnaround is needed with Dubai Treasure on their Goodwood July run and she faded in a 6f Listed race at Pontefract since; up against it with new blinkers replacing cheekpieces.

Form & Verdict
Twice made all at Kempton (6f, AW) early this year and showed good pace in front when dead-heating for fourth over 7f here (good to firm) on Saturday; this drop back to 6f looks the right move and she can make a bold bid.

Struggled in Class 3 event at Glorious Goodwood three weeks ago, but she's a C&D winner who was runner-up here (6f, good to firm; first-time visor) on her penultimate run; has claims if she can recapture that form and her last three wins have been under George Wood.

Races prominently; behind some of these in a 7f handicap at the Newmarket July meeting but the visor went on back there 11 days ago and, in a 6f handicap she'd won the previous year, she beat all bar late player Sing The Blues; her close third behind Bintaryana at York in June is another key piece of form that heightens interest.

Beat five others to win this race off 3lb higher last year and she chased home Powdering over C&D three weeks ago; bombed out in a better race over 7f here on Saturday but that might be best ignored; visor enlisted.

Form & Verdict
Having dropped below her last winning mark this front-runner rallied to win over C&D (good to firm) three weeks ago, when returned to this trip; unexposed at the distance and has gone back up only 3lb; respected.

Justified favouritism at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) recently and remains well treated back up just 2lb; however, her last four wins have come at the same venue and she has something to prove on her first run here.

Often leads and her last three wins have been over C&D, including in this race last year; finished down the field in last four runs but this is a drop back in grade and she's now 7lb lower than for her last success; one to keep an eye on.

Form & Verdict
Won easily at Southwell (7f, AW) in April on her second start and good second in Yarmouth novice (7f, good to firm) next time; soundly beaten in two Listed races since (1m/7f) but has far more realistic claims now contesting her first handicap and the drop to 6f could suit this headstrong sort.

7f maiden win on AW last April; faced some stiff tasks afterwards and came up short; well backed on last month's seasonal/stable debut (7f, AW), staying on best (fastest final-furlong sectional) for fifth in a race not run to suit; worth another crack at 1m on that evidence; may yet do better.

Won on debut at York (6f, good to firm) last July and fair fifth in Group 3 next time; however, she's been unable to reproduce that form this season and the first-time cheekpieces need to make a difference.

One of four for yard; won a novice in 2024 for Karl Burke but no joy since; some good runs in defeat this season, including a respectable fourth behind Pivotal Attack in a Listed at Galway; lots to find on paper here, however, and held in a Gowran handicap on latest; visor goes on.

Second runner for yard and the choice of McMonagle; beaten a short head by Rion Rubette in a C&D handicap on yielding in June and 3lb better off with that rival now; not disgraced in Listed race at Galway on latest; majority of best form on easy ground so could probably do with some rain.

Form & Verdict
Well beaten in the Sandringham at Royal Ascot but looked unsuited by the step up to 1m; progressive over 7f previously, winning on the other Newmarket course (good to firm) then runner-up in warm race at Haydock (good); her dam was speedy and she may be suited by this first crack at sprinting.

J: Sean Levey

T: David Simcock

Looked one to follow when readily seeing off seven rivals over 7f here in May; her Royal Ascot defeat over a mile is easy enough to excuse and her other runs this summer all read well enough, closely matched with Angel Shared and Shallow on two pieces of July course form; a well-run 6f would suit and she's an each-way contender at least.

Ready winner of a 7f handicap on the Rowley course in May; runner-up off this mark at Haydock next time and she has been placed in both starts since dropping back to 6f, latterly behind a smart filly at Goodwood; no obvious reason why she wouldn't go well again.
