Form: 225-59

Last run: 47 days

W: 9st 9lb

3 yo Filly

OR: 65

Form & Verdict
Her best form has been on heavy ground, including a Bath win (5.7f) last October and a second at Goodwood (7f) later that month; well handicapped on that form but she's finished down the field in both runs this season and is now 1-12.

Scored over C&D on heavy in October 2024 and recorded her second win, at Windsor (6f, soft), last September; below that form on her two subsequent starts last year and watching brief advised on this reappearance unless the ground turns in her favour.

J: William Carson

Took a C&D nursery (heavy) this time last year and September's Windsor score reaffirmed her greater effectiveness on slow ground, so largely drying forecast not ideal; back down 2lb now unpenalised again, at least.

J: William Carson

T: Tony Carroll

Seems ideally suited by testing ground, winning a nursery on heavy last season and running her best race for her new stable when powering home over C&D last week (soft); penalty demands more but she's coming here at the top of her game and that doesn't apply to several of her rivals.

Form & Verdict
Two promising placed efforts in 6f maidens (good/good to soft) last season but she's struggled in three runs this term; mark is falling and this return to forecast slower ground could help but she needs a major revival.

0-12 but very nearly got off the mark at Bath (1m, heavy) last month and again ran well when 2l third of 11 at Kempton (1m, AW) last time; can be in the mix and very testing conditions would boost her claims.

Two wins on AW at Lingfield (6f/7f) this season and he's also scored on turf at Brighton (5.3f, good to firm); bit disappointing when favourite there (7f) last time but he still looks feasibly treated and seems fairly versatile ground-wise; dangerous if he can get back near best.
