Form & Verdict
Two improved efforts since moving into handicaps, finishing third at Doncaster in July and second at Carlisle last month (7f, good and good to soft); helped force a strong pace at Carlisle and she was only picked off late on so that run can be upgraded a touch; promise in one AW start; leading contender.

T: Bryan Smart

12-race maiden who has blown hot and cold since moving into handicaps; had a wind op prior to Carlisle (7f, good to soft) 15 days ago, a race where she was sent off favourite; has the ability to win off this mark but she's not one to rely on.

Quirky maiden who virtually refused to race at Newcastle in February, but she ran well at Southwell on her penultimate run, and her best effort last season was a close call over C&D; returns after wind surgery and she's not ruled out back at this track.

His two runs for Sam England have been over 1m at this track and on both occasions he has shaped as though dropping to 7f might help; not fully exposed and he's more appealing than some.
