Form & Verdict
Easy to back for debut at Kempton (7f; 12-1) in October but she came home with a wet sail to take second of nine; had a query about the drop to 6f there on her recent comeback and she wasn't seen to best advantage but likely to progress with racing and the return to 7f can suit.

Improved with each of her three runs in fillies' novice events, getting off the mark at Lingfield last month (7f); not obviously thrown in on that effort but her pedigree and profile do point to further progress being highly likely.

Half-sister to two smart operators for this yard in Archer's Dream and Hickory; very pleasing debut when splitting market leaders, who had the benefit of experience, on debut over 7f here in October; major claims if coping with dropping back a furlong.

Form & Verdict
Came closest to a win when a neck runner-up on Southwell AW (6f) last July but she didn't have the clearest of runs when finishing fourth of 14 in a C&D handicap (first-time hood) in October; needs a bit more but that's on the cards.

Ten-race maiden but she's been placed in three of her last four handicaps including when a 2l third at Newmarket (6f, good to firm; hood removed) last month; that was in a Class 5 event and she's respected on this drop back in grade.

Form & Verdict
Three fair efforts over 6f and 7f on AW and turf as 2yo; saw daylight early and it went to her head on reappearance at Southwell (7f), proving hard to settle, so did well in the circumstances; should fare better.

Has found new reserves of late, gaining back-to-back wins over 6f (good to firm) and 7f (AW) before building up a head of steam to take a late third against the older fillies at Newmarket (6f) recently; might prefer a stiffer test than this sharp 6f but still hard to leave out.

Has been threatening to get off the mark since the autumn and things have fallen right for her of late, following a 6f win at Leicester (good to firm) with an impressive one on Lingfield AW (7f); strong traveller who shouldn't mind the return to 6f; still has potential.

Following a series of near misses, she got her head in front when it mattered, down in trip and back on turf at Leicester (6f, good to firm) nine days ago; equally effective at 7f; strong claims under 6lb penalty in follow-up bid.

Signs of ability in three runs to date and starts handicap life at a sensible level; room for improvement at the stalls and she'll want to settle better than in the past from a wide stall but is one to consider.
