Form & Verdict
Has not progressed from debut win, admittedly missing most of 2024; respectable third at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW) in April but front-running did not work out over that same C&D three months later; below form sole starts on turf (soft) and 1m4f (AW); others have more pressing claims.

Two wins in Britain were on AW; ground should suit but might prefer a longer trip; hard-earned Newcastle win last September was over an extended 1m4f.

Wouldn't judge her too harshly on last two runs (met trouble on former occasion and then faced a stiff task from out of the weights latest); this more suitable and she's not discounted.

400,000gns yearling; third of four in a maiden at Sandown (1m, soft) last September and the winner's good, but this filly managed only sixth of 13 when second favourite at Kempton (1m, AW) in October; early days and she could be interesting if she reappears with any confidence behind her.

Form & Verdict
Fair form this term, best of it in handicaps at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW) and Hamilton (1m3f, good; close second of four) on last two outings; dam winning a 1m6f Listed race suggests she will stay, as does latest performance, so she has each-way claims.

Didn't appear to quite get home at Leicester (1m4f, good) last month having only gone down narrowly at Hamilton (1m3f, good) the time before; form of her latest AW outing when fourth of eight at Chelmsford (1m2f, Polytrack) in June has worked out well; respected with cheekpieces given a go.

Form & Verdict
Awarded a Lingfield novice event (1m2f, good to firm) in May having been narrowly denied by the errant winner; never dangerous on handicap debut (1m4f, good) next time but short-headed in three-way photo with a prominent ride at Haydock (11.6f, good) on latest outing; in the mix.

Made the running when 1m2f handicap winner (good to firm) this year at Doncaster and Beverley; 25-1 and again set the pace when fourth of five in Listed race at Beverley (1m4f) 13 days ago, which was another good run but whether it's worth another 3lb rise in today's mark can be questioned.

Both wins have been on AW (latest in March) and her only run at this track did not go well, when favourite over 1m6f on heavy on final start last term; close second with first-time cheekpieces at Goodwood (2m, good) on latest outing, however, is a notable positive.
