Improved with each of his three runs in novice/maiden company this winter, getting off the mark in a C&D maiden three weeks ago; ran on well there and should have more to offer at this trip but his opening mark doesn't look an obvious gift.

Not the most consistent, but won at Bath (5f, good to firm) and Newcastle (7f, AW) last year and finished second of six on the AW here (1m) in January; off four months since, but still a player if producing her best form.

Pulled hard when below market expectations on her debut but was more amenable down to 5f when off the mark at Bath (again good to firm) five weeks ago, for Ollie Sangster; picked up at the sales for 105,000gns 13 days ago and remains open to improvement for her new yard.

Off the mark at the eighth attempt when streaking clear of six rivals at Wolverhampton 23 days ago (8.6f); not sure he needed to improve to win that modest affair (2-9 favourite) but earlier Wolverhampton second showed he could compete off this sort of mark.

His Beverley run on second start was disappointing but he led 2f out and was collared in only the final strides by Stoneacre Donny at Thirsk (7f, soft) on latest; the dam's side poses a question mark over his stamina but this Frankel 2yo should prove capable of better.
