Her half-sister Thursday won twice for this yard; back from a break and showed more in a first-time hood (retained) at Lingfield last time (sent off 200-1); this modest handicap looks much more suitable.

Form & Verdict
Six-race maiden; made a bold bid over 5f here last month but the blinkers didn't have the same effect at Chelmsford four weeks ago and they are now discarded; has the best form but vulnerable to anything progressive.

A fair sprint maiden at 2yrs but he's failed to fire this term, gelded before coming in last of ten in 6f Kempton handicap 13 days ago; steps up markedly in trip here.

Seven-race maiden; gave it a good go from the front at Lingfield in December (5f; blinkered first time) but two disappointing runs have followed; has been gelded since latest run and is down in class with a good apprentice booked so a revival not impossible, for all he carries risk.
