Form & Verdict
Looked one to follow when readily seeing off seven rivals over 7f here in May; her Royal Ascot defeat over a mile is easy enough to excuse and her other runs this summer all read well enough, closely matched with Angel Shared and Shallow on two pieces of July course form; a well-run 6f would suit and she's an each-way contender at least.

Ready winner of a 7f handicap on the Rowley course in May; runner-up off this mark at Haydock next time and she has been placed in both starts since dropping back to 6f, latterly behind a smart filly at Goodwood; no obvious reason why she wouldn't go well again.

Progressive since handicapping, winning a Musselburgh nursery for Bryan Smart one year ago and adding a Beverley success (5f, good to firm) in July; near misses in two of her three starts since, latterly going down by a nose at Yarmouth nine days ago (6f, good to soft; Cinque Verde back in fourth); 2lb well in and unexposed at 6f; solid claims.

More prolific on AW than turf but she comes here in top form, winning a 6f handicap on the July course last month and then a creditable fourth on ground slower than ideal at Yarmouth nine days ago; getting back on faster ground will help but there are other pace influences in opposition.

Form & Verdict
The winner of seven of her 18 starts, three of the wins coming this year (including both here and the July course); finished with a flourish to beat 17 rivals at York's Ebor meeting five weeks ago and a 5lb rise doesn't look excessive; drying ground in her favour but dropping to 6f asks a new question of her; this is likely to be well run, however, and she's a contender.

Form & Verdict
She has done most of her racing on AW but she's shown herself to be fully effective on fast turf this summer, narrowly fending off Arabian Leopard (6f) on the July course in July and running a cracker behind Royal Velvet at York (7f) five weeks ago, tanking along in front and having most of the field off the bridle some way out, only to tire late on; return to 6f won't be an issue but she's one of a number of prominent racers on show; still more appealing than most.
