Form & Verdict
March foal by Saxon Warrior; first foal; dam 6f 2yo winner (RPR 84), sister to useful 1m4f-2m winner Spirit Mixer, half-sister to 1m2f Group 2 winner See The Fire, out of Juddmonte International winner Arabian Queen; faces a stiff task against Birdcall on debut and his pedigree suggests he may need further in due course, but sire's record of 14-64 (22%) here in past five seasons is encouraging; market crucial.

Just three starts on turf (unraced on firmer than good to soft) and he ran above market expectations when beaten 3l in 14-runner handicap at Ayr (7f, soft; 100-1) last month; not disgraced when fourth back over that C&D (heavy; stumbled start) last Thursday and he's unexposed on grass; cheekpieces join his tongue-tie.

Her four wins in the first half of 2026 included one at this track (7f); creditable second at Newbury (7f, good to firm) three weeks ago; stays 7.6f but this is her first attempt at 1m.

Four AW wins from 5f to 7f; respectable sixth of 12 at York (6f, good) before two visits to Chester where she was scuppered by the widest stall on the first occasion and then raced freely when better drawn a month ago; could go well if giving herself a chance.

Four AW wins from 5f to 7f; good sixth of 12 at York (6f, good) before scuppered by the widest stall over 7f here four weeks ago; better boxed this afternoon and she likes to be handy in her races; interesting.

0-4; failed to take step forward on Ripon handicap debut (6f; seventh of nine, 28-1; always towards rear); still early days but, equally, there's little to suggest that she can play a role in the finish.

Thrice-raced filly who holds weak claims on form but may be capable of improvement now handicapping with Catterick reappearance under her belt; check the betting for further guidance.

Fifth of nine on Newcastle AW debut in a 6f fillies' maiden (7-1) last October, but took a backward step at Southwell (5f; 33-1, last of five) a few weeks later; off for 224 days since so she couldn't be the pick on this turf debut; monitor only.
