Form & Verdict

An improver this summer in completing a hat-trick in Class 6 handicaps (1m-1m2f); may have found the ground too soft here ten days ago but it could also be that he's now on a tough mark.

Off the mark at the fifth attempt when dead-heating for a 1m handicap at Wetherby (good to firm; visored first time) eight days ago; a 6lb penalty asks more of her but she is on the up.

Seven races, best when beaten under a length in 1m handicaps here (firm/good) on last two occasions; not bred for 1m2f but has now been shaping as if worth a crack at it; also now tries headgear but he's one to consider.

Has had a good spell for this yard, winning 7f classified events at Leicester and on this track, and rose above that form when coming clear over 1m here (good); another good effort when third of 11 at Bath since; should be a threat if able to sustain form back over 7f.
