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.

Some useful form in Britain before being bought by current connections for 30,000gns; ran a very encouraging race on stable debut when beaten 4.25l by stablemate Sindria at this track on soft over a mile 14 days ago; nudged up 3lb; drop in trip should suit and one of three strong chances for in-form stable with great record in this race.

Won over 6f on debut for Karl Burke as a 2yo but didn't win since, albeit ran well several times up to 7f and on soft; bought by currentg connections for 30,000gns at the sales last autumn; possibly the yard's selected runner so watch the market.

Struggled on first three starts for this yard last autumn but back to form with a bang when accounting for the reopposing Jonny Concrete and 11 others at Hamilton (6f, good) last Sunday; only scraped home by a short head so she may struggle to confirm that narrow superiority over Iain Jardine's charge on the revised terms.

Unexposed filly who ran a fine race over 7f here on her 2yo debut; didn't feature in two handicap runs last autumn but the ground was soft on both occasions and there were other mitigating factors too (6f too sharp at Hamilton and poor draw at Pontefract); too soon to write her off and drying ground would be beneficial.

Eleven turf wins, mostly at Hamilton but once over C&D, on ground ranging from soft to good to firm; weighted to find another race and will be suited by returning to a track with a stiff finish following her persevering fourth at Ayr 13 days ago; thereabouts.

Heavy ground excuses her low-key end to 2025 and she ran a series of good races, including a win at Hamilton when first tried in blinkers; whether first time out is the time to catch her remains to be seen but interesting that a tongue-tie goes on for her return.
