Form & Verdict
Didn't match up to market expectations in her first three starts for William Haggas, but ran better when fifth of ten on handicap debut at Redcar (7f, good) where she would have gone even closer with a clear run; makes her debut for her new yard after three months off having changed hands for 22,000gns last month; out of a Polytrack winner; watch market.

0-4 for William Haggas and sold to join new yard for 22,000gns in July; made winning AW/stable debut at Lingfield (1m) two weeks ago and may have further improvement now that she steps up in trip.

Form & Verdict
Well beaten on handicap/AW debut over C&D in April, but has suddenly taken off on turf lately with two wins at Windsor (1m, good to firm), the first under Jude Fernandes; has a 6lb penalty to carry, but still a major player if his progress can be transferred back to Polytrack.

Both wins over 1m at Windsor when racing prominently; 8lb higher than for the last of those but off the same mark as for his close second at Brighton last time; should be fine on the track; considered.

Always prominent when winning a pair of handicaps at Windsor (1m, good to firm); came up short in his hat-trick bid at Lingfield (1m, AW) on Tuesday but Billy Loughnane replaces a 7lb claimer and there could still be further progress in him.

Has improved since switched to this C&D with cheekpieces added, finishing second of ten behind a dual subsequent winner last month before narrowly winning a 0-50 classified event; this race will demand more, but something has clicked and she has less to prove than a few.

Has proved consistent in her last four starts at Lingfield (1m, Polytrack) with headgear fitted (2142); has shaped as though a stiffer test might suit so she makes the shortlist.

Got off the mark at the seventh attempt in classified event over C&D in July, despite hanging badly left; followed it up with a good fourth of seven over C&D last month, especially as he challenged wide; very much one to consider with visor now replacing cheekpieces.

Only had seven races; in first-time cheekpieces when third over a bit further here recently and the front two (Geemann and Honour Your Dreams) could frank that form earlier on the card; surprising to see a visor turned to on the back of that improvement.

Lightly raced 3yo who showed promise when fourth in a maiden at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) last November but he's struggled on his four starts since (7f/1m), including in two handicaps this summer; a transformation is needed back down in trip in first-time cheekpieces.
