Form & Verdict
Easily got off the mark in an optional claiming race over 1m2f at Fairyhouse last time; sometimes the form of those races needs to be treated with caution but the runner-up is a solid yardstick so this filly has to be respected on handicap debut; ground an unknown.

Easy winner of a 1m2f claimer and followed up in a small-field handicap at Leopardstown (1m1f); surpassed all that form when a close fourth in the Listed 1m4f Galtres at York (form has been franked); very much on the upgrade and should make presence felt.

Easily got off the mark in an optional claiming race at Fairyhouse (1m2f, good) on third start; made further marked improvement when winning a four-runner handicap at Leopardstown (1m1f, good to yielding) later in July, again making all; this is a sterner test in every respect but 1m4f looks plausible and she's unexposed, heading the right way.

Won a Gowran maiden over 1m last month but never involved in a hot handicap at Royal Ascot over the same trip since; the cheekpieces worn then are kept on and this is much less competitive; ground an unknown but sire's progeny usually handle it.

Form & Verdict
Gradual improver has won three handicaps over this trip, two at Tipperary before scoring over C&D last week; carries a 7lb penalty but is due to go up 9lb so is theoretically 2lb well in; handles soft ground so has to be taken seriously.

Progressive handicapper with 1m1f wins this term at Tipperary (twice) and here last month, keen and leading halfway; week later again took a hold in tactical 4-runner affair here when only third; bigger field and more truly-run race should suit back at 1m.

79-rated gelding won twice in June at Cork and Leopardstown, both over 1m on nice ground; midfield on soft to heavy at the Curragh latest (1m) and has hinted that this sort of trip might suit, though he's not bred for it.

Has enjoyed a fine campaign; back to back wins in June saw him go up 13lb but he has continued to acquit himself well; another sound run in a Killarney rated race latest (1m, good); probably doesn't want it too soft.

Both wins on goodish ground but versatile as regards conditions as it was yielding to soft when second in a 1m handicap at Galway where three of today's rivals were behind; came from well off the pace that day so it was some effort.
