9st 9lb |
5yo who was a big improver at the start of this season, winning a handicap at Newmarket (7f, good) then the Group 3 Chartwell Stakes at Lingfield (7f, good to firm); however, it appears as though she may have gone off the boil on her last two outings; carries a 3lb penalty this afternoon. |

Always behind in the boiling cauldron of a Royal Ascot handicap last week; progressive otherwise and still has good stats, being 9-22 overall, 2-3 this term and 6-11 over 7f (1-1 over C&D); however, has to overcome a 3lb penalty for the Group 3 win achieved against her own sex in May. |

Cheekpieces on for the first time when ending a long losing sequence at Ayr (6f) in July; backed it up with a good third of 11 at Hamilton (5f) a week ago; must enter calculations back up to 6f with headgear retained. |

Better than ever when landing a second 7f Goodwood success of the year in 20-runner event at last week's Glorious meeting (good to firm), with the reopposing Pellitory well behind; a further 4lb rise seems unlikely to prevent another prominent showing from this thriving 5yo. |

Three wins last year and he won 14-runner handicap over C&D (good) in May; solid fourth to Colombier at Epsom next time and it was a narrow career best when second of 11 at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) 18 days ago; will probably need another pb but that's not out of the question and Ryan Moore rides; considered. |

Four wins from 37 starts, the most recent at Chelmsford (7f, AW) in December; got behind early at Southwell last time after short of room leaving the stalls but then kept on into seventh; each-way contender with refitted cheekpieces replacing regular hood. |

Seen much more often on turf than the AW but he did win on sand at Chelmsford (7f) last December and has since shown useful course form over 6f and 7f; down the field at Doncaster most recently but would have a squeak if back to his C&D form in March. |

Kept fairly busy in the last 12 months and he supplemented a 6f Windsor win (good) in September by scoring over 7f at Yarmouth (good to soft) in October and at Chelmsford (AW) in December; has held his form with some solid efforts this spring and he could make a serious impact if this sets up for his closing style. |

Made all in very valuable auction race as a juvenile but winless since taking Redcar's Two-Year-Old Trophy six weeks later; looked to be rediscovering his level when third on AW in March and it was a solid fifth of 18 behind Royal Velvet (declared for preceding Group 3) at Newmarket (7f, good) last time; if the stands' rail proves the place to be this could be the day to revert to forcing tactics; interesting. |

Yet to match his 2yo best (included big sales race and Listed wins) but he's only had eight subsequent starts and latest third at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) four weeks ago was a firm step back in the right direction; same mark and there's a suspicion he could be on the way back; player if so. |
