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.

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.

Has a very good C&D record with three wins (all good to firm) last term; had dipped below her last winning mark when attempting to make it four three weeks ago, so her sixth of seven behind Powdering was underwhelming; dropped a further 2lb and she's not readily dismissed.

Front-running C&D hat-trick on good to firm last summer started with a win in this race; as good as ever in 5f events at Bath this year and a subsequent Listed defeat on good to soft at Haydock (28-1) can be glossed over; yard also won this in 2022 and she's likely to be on her game.

Completed 6f Newmarket handicap hat-trick last summer (good to firm); kept on well for fifth of 14 in Listed race at Bath (5f, good) last month and close third in handicap there (5f, good) latest; has run well on heavy ground here; improvement needed but the return to 6f can suit; not ruled out.

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.

Some useful form in Britain for Karl Burke; good stable debut when runner-up in course handicap (1m, soft) and improved when filling the same spot behind Rion Rubette over C&D (soft) next time; faced a tall task in Listed grade at Naas on latest; front-runner is well drawn to attack.

Some useful form in Britain for Karl Burke before being bought by current connections for 30,000gns; made a good stable debut when a runner-up in a Gowran handicap and improved when filling the same spot dropped to 7f back there next time; those runs were on soft, while her British form is on good, so could improve, but this is a tall task; Greek Mythology is stable first-string.

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.

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.

Not seen to best effect last October on final 3yo start but she'd previous gone close twice in a row, on the first occasion on the other Newmarket course (6f, good to firm); reappears with Oisin Murphy booked and this lightly raced filly may have more to offer this season; possible contender.
