Form & Verdict
Successful on Tapeta at Newcastle (7f) in sole start for John Butler, comfortably beating a solid yardstick; remote second on stable debut at Kempton (1m) in August but that was behind a smart prospect and she pulled clear of the third; looks interesting now switched to a nursery and she's bred to better than this opening mark.

Two wins and a second place from just three AW starts, easily beating five rivals in 1m nursery at Southwell on latest; has to prove she's effective on turf but she's in good hands and going the right way.

Form & Verdict
Justified 9-4 favouritism in Salisbury maiden (7f, good to firm) in August and she may not have handled the heavy ground on nursery debut there (fourth of six) last month; still unexposed but she's untried on AW and needs to resume her progress at this new trip.

Cosy winner of a Musselburgh maiden (7f, good) in August and she did well to reel in the favourite on nursery debut at Lingfield (1m, AW) later that month; held behind Grimese's Special in seller at Salisbury (7f) last time but that was in the mud and she could kick on again on this step back up in trip.

Won two in a row in August (7f/1m, good/AW; including nursery debut) and has run okay on her next two outings, but she needs to better those last two performances if she's to make a serious impact here.

Did well to reel in the favourite at Lingfield (1m nursery, AW), that her second straight success following a cosy Musselburgh maiden win (7f) from Ten Sixty Six - who also shares a form line with Castrillo; dam won on soft, so no reason why an easier surface will hinder.

Made it 2-4 in nurseries when holding off a strong finisher at Chester (7f, good to soft) two weeks ago; 3lb higher at this new trip but she still has potential and is out of a half-sister to a 1m2f winner; key player.

Off the mark at sixth attempt when landing a Chepstow nursery (7f, good) in July; only third of six at Newmarket last time but that was a tactical race and she stayed on well in the closing stages; still has potential at this trip and she's only 2lb higher than for her penultimate run; in the mix.

Got off the mark at Chepstow (7f, good) last month on second nursery start; it's possible she'll continue to improve but she had just a nose to spare in that Class 6 contest, and is back in tougher company in this Class 3.

Always behind on Chepstow debut last month but she sprang a surprise with her 66-1 win in a Salisbury seller (7f, heavy; blinkers added) ten days later; this is a different test on nursery debut but this unexposed filly is open to more progress on this step up in trip; in the mix.

£60,000 yearling; finished in rear in three qualifying runs (7f, good/AW) but this is more realistic and she's a possible improver upped to 1m on nursery debut; needs watching in market for in-form yard.
