Gained a second win of 2026 at Musselburgh (5f) in June; only seventh of 11 in 5f Ayr handicap three days ago so she needs to bounce back.

Made all over C&D (good) at the beginning of the month and very nearly repeated the feat last week, collared only in the final strides; same mark today and another bold bid looks assured in her current mood.

Finished behind Wee Mary when fifth of ten at Carlisle last week; best on good or slower ground so wouldn't be ideally suited by drying conditions.

Arrives seeking a hat-trick after 7f turf wins at Musselburgh (good) and Catterick (good to firm), the latter with ease and his best effort for almost two years; still well treated on this first AW start since March and a repeat of either of his last two efforts would make him tough to beat.

C&D scorer who ran his most encouraging race of the campaign when third (Wee Mary second) over C&D (good) eight days ago; his best form of 2025 came at this time of the year so it's possible he can build on that.
