Down the field at Yarmouth (6f, good to soft) last Tuesday but slow ground may not suit nowadays; third in this last year and she seems to like the Newmarket courses; each-way possibilities if back on song.

J: Seamus Cronin

T: Michael Herrington

Versatile ground-wise and she recorded her ninth win when bouncing with a comfortable success at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) in June; creditable third (Shallow second) there in July; not at best latest (Newmarket again) but the fact she won this race from an identical mark last year makes her a dangerous one to discount.

Form & Verdict
Often leads; C&D winner last July; two narrow defeats from three starts since cheekpieces have been fitted, over 7f at Yarmouth and 6f at York (both on good); a very likely contender back over this C&D.

Races prominently; behind some of these in a 7f handicap at the Newmarket July meeting but the visor went on back there 11 days ago and, in a 6f handicap she'd won the previous year, she beat all bar late player Sing The Blues; her close third behind Bintaryana at York in June is another key piece of form that heightens interest.

Form & Verdict
Has been threatening to get off the mark since the autumn and things have fallen right for her of late, following a 6f win at Leicester (good to firm) with an impressive one on Lingfield AW (7f); strong traveller who shouldn't mind the return to 6f; still has potential.

Has found new reserves of late, gaining back-to-back wins over 6f (good to firm) and 7f (AW) before building up a head of steam to take a late third against the older fillies at Newmarket (6f) recently; might prefer a stiffer test than this sharp 6f but still hard to leave out.

Made the most of a good opportunity in a small-field maiden at Ffos Las (6f, good) last month but only 3l fifth of seven to Powdering on Newmarket handicap debut (6f again) prior to that; her draw isn't ideal either; others are more obvious

Form & Verdict
Front-running C&D hat-trick on good to firm last summer started with a win in this race; as good as ever in 5f events at Bath this year and a subsequent Listed defeat on good to soft at Haydock (28-1) can be glossed over; yard also won this in 2022 and she's likely to be on her game.

Often leads and her last three wins have been over C&D, including in this race last year; finished down the field in last four runs but this is a drop back in grade and she's now 7lb lower than for her last success; one to keep an eye on.

Form & Verdict
Won 6f maiden and novice events (good to firm) as 2yo and had a difficult weights task when beaten under 6l in C&D Listed race on the Rowley course in October; two good efforts in 7f handicaps, on turf and AW, this year and likely to get the good pace needed now back at 6f; thereabouts.

Both wins were non handicaps last year over 6f on fast ground; started this season with two seconds in 7f handicaps but she's failed to beat a rival in three of her last four starts; mark is falling but she was tailed off at Newbury last time and others are more convincing; cheekpieces are removed after one use.
