Form & Verdict
Starman filly who impressed when making a winning start in 5f Nottingham maiden in October; again shaped well when an odds-on second of three in 5f Wolverhampton novice on her return last month, not enjoying a clear passage, so she's very much the one to beat.

Looked good when winning a C&D maiden on her debut last October (good to soft; form franked); beaten twice in novice company this spring but she moves into handicaps with the potential for more.

Travelled powerfully and won with more authority than the half-length winning margin might suggest on her 2yo debut at Nottingham in October (5f, good to soft; form franked); she looks a useful prospect and is greatly respected back from 173 days off.

16,000euros yearling, 55,000gns 2yo; dam, 5f winner (RPR 70), is closely related to 6f winner So Many Questions; this A'Ali filly is no forlorn hope on her first run.

A'Ali filly; posted a good second in 5f Hamilton novice in May but well below par both subsequent runs, only sixth on her handicap debut at Catterick (5f) 23 days ago; remains with few miles on the clock but she needs to take a big step forward.

0-18; more realistic assignment today following last week's Ripon novice tilt, but preceding efforts in handicaps fall some way short of the required; work on from out of the weights.

Run to a similar level in two starts in the tongue-tie since handicapping; latest effort over 5f can be marked up a touch (stumbled at the start and came widest from the outside stall at Windsor) and he holds decent claims.
