13-race maiden who is unraced beyond 6f; after a promising third on stable debut here (6f, good to firm) in June he took a backward step when fifth at Beverley (5f, good to firm) latest, but this 3yo is not ruled out.

Failed to progress as a 2yo and was well held in sprint handicaps on the AW and turf for previous yard; however, he shaped nicely on his debut for this one when third at Catterick (6f, good to firm) in June so now he's of more interest again.

Maiden who has finished close up in two of three 6f handicaps for new yard, notably when finding Carlisle's stiff test at the trip a bit much for her in May; lesser efforts at 5f and 6f since, though, the fitting of cheekpieces at Catterick last time not an obvious pointer for this.

0-10 but she has snippets of form that give her a squeak; last week's fifth of seven at Catterick wasn't as bad a run as the distance beaten suggests (hampered at a crucial stage) and she's not out of it.

Finished a promising third of 12 on her Redcar debut (6f, good to firm) in May last year, but then went missing for 11 months and has been well held in both starts since returning; needs the switch to a handicap and new headgear combination to bring about a resurgence.

Early signs of ability when third of 12 on debut at Redcar (6f, good to firm) in May 2025 but she wasn't seen again until April, on Southwell AW, when impeded early and never entered the fray; may well need another run and will be eligible for handicaps after today.
