Confirmed debut promise when winning a 7f Tapeta novice last autumn; well backed ahead of her Bath comeback on rain-softened ground but finished a long way back after fluffing the start; bit to prove after that.

Stepped up on reappearance when third of ten over 1m at Windsor (good to firm) a fortnight ago, although he faded inside the final furlong and this sometimes keen goer wouldn't be sure to benefit from this slightly longer distance.

Consistent once handicapping last season before finding 1m2f beyond him latterly; entitled to have come on for his recent comeback, having been gelded, and this is easier but he's vulnerable to improvers now.

Won twice on AW within five days in March and carried on his progression back on turf when second of 12 at Nottingham (also about 1m, good) in April; might have found 1m2f a slight stretch when third on his final start for George Scott and subsequently secured for 20,000gns; he's back at 1m but up in grade for this stable debut.

Has form figures of 2221142 in handicaps this year since the blinkers went on, with the wins coming at Southwell (1m, AW) and Wolverhampton (8.5f, AW); has gone up 3lb for his recent runner-up effort at Nottingham but he should go well if seeing out this longer trip.

Beaten around 8l when third of 12 in a maiden at Newcastle (1m, AW) in April and ran with credit when second of four on her handicap debut at Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) 29 days ago; hung right that day and cheekpieces are added for her first start on turf.

Kept on to finish third of ten over this C&D in April and shaped as if still in good form at Windsor (1m, good to firm) next time; disappointed in first-time blinkers here 15 days ago but may bounce back with the headgear removed.

Closely related to winners Beyond Equal (5f-6f including AW; RPR 98) and Sarsaparilla (6f 2yo; 76) and half-brother to five winners, including Simmy's Temple (US 1m including turf 2yo stakes) and Bridget's View (7f AW 2yo; 80); stable won this with the smart Ten Bob Tony in 2023, although not first time out; would enter the reckoning if the betting vibes are strong.
