Doubled his tally when winning at Musselburgh (5f) in June; bounced back to his best with second of 11 in 5f handicap at Haydock 22 days ago, not enjoying the smoothest of passages over 1f out; likely to go well again off 1lb lower mark.

In and out since he won at Musselburgh (5f, good) in June but he ran well when second at Haydock (5f, heavy) nine days ago; bang there if he's once more on a going day.

J: Connor Beasley

T: Michael Dods

Won at Musselburgh (5f, good) in June and did well to finish third at Newmarket (5f, good to firm) in July having been hampered early; however, he finished last of five at Musselburgh next time and was down the field in an admittedly hot handicap at York a fortnight ago; has shown promise on soft, though.

Form & Verdict
Made all at Catterick (5f, good) on second start then mid-division in warm fillies' conditions race at Glorious Goodwood (5f, good); fared best of the four who were on the far side on nursery debut at Thirsk (5f, good) this month and attractive pedigree hints slow ground will suit; interesting.

Made all with hood added at Catterick (5f, good) on her second start and she ran well for a long way in useful conditions event at Glorious Goodwood (sixth of 11) last time; should have more to offer now switched to a nursery and this speedy filly needs a close look.

Too headstrong on debut but showed the benefit of a hood at Catterick (5f, good) where she made all; upped in class but this speedy sort may improve further in the retained headgear.

Form & Verdict
Close second of four on nursery debut over C&D (good) in July and could appreciate this drop back in trip; however, he was soundly beaten when fourth of seven here (6f, good to soft) 19 days ago and others arrive with more pressing claims.

5f novice (good) winner last spring whose best form this term came when fourth of 14 at Beverley (5f, good to soft) in May; way below that level in four subsequent starts, however; cheekpieces, worn on the last two occasions, are removed.

Ran quite well over C&D in May and he is 7lb lower today; that is a result of two lacklustre efforts subsequently and connections now turn to cheekpieces; risky but not impossible.

Made all over 6f here on his second start and he ran into a subsequent Gimcrack (Group 2) winner when a respectable fourth here last time; those last two runs were under positive tactics and he looks interesting back at 5f on nursery debut.

Represents notable connections; gelded prior to close and rallying third at Musselburgh (good) in latest 5f start; open to progress now handicapping and looks ready for a crack at 6f; warrants respect.

Did too much up front on debut; couldn't quite get the job done when favourite at Redcar (5f, good to firm) since but ran well despite losing a shoe; subsequently gelded; one of the main form contenders.
