Form & Verdict
Ran with promise in some useful maiden/novice events, including C&D, and he was sent off favourite for a Class 3 nursery at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) four weeks ago; pulled too hard there and dropped away to be beaten over 6l but he should benefit from the return to sprinting and he sets a fair standard for the newcomers to aim at.

Two narrow wins over 7f (good to firm) either side of apparently failing to stay 1m at Goodwood in June but he found just the one pace when sixth of 11 at Ascot last month and it remains to be seen whether he's still on a winning mark.

Made the breakthrough when scrambling home in Catterick maiden in May and he broke his handicap duck with another neck success at Leicester (also 7f, good to firm) three weeks ago; up 4lb but he might be capable of better.

Didn't have to improve to reward odds-on backers in a 7f maiden at Catterick in May; creditable fifth in a 1m handicap at Goodwood two weeks ago and the return to 7f in a slightly weaker race should see him on the premises.

0-4 as 2yo but improved form since a 207-day break, making all at Lingfield (6f, AW) before following up at Thirsk on her turf debut (6f, good to firm); leaves the impression she has more to offer but now steps back up in trip in a deeper race off this 8lb higher mark (2lb out of the handicap).

Unexposed 3yo who returned after 207 days off with a dominant display in a Lingfield handicap (6f, AW) last Monday; 3lb well in under a penalty for that success and she's open to more progress on this switch to turf; strong contender.

Showed similar level of fair form on all four 2yo starts, most recently when fourth on nursery debut at Chelmsford (7f) in December; might have more to offer back at 6f this year but has fitness to prove after seven-month break.
