Prolific mare who was successful in this race in 2021 (off 5lb lower); more miss than hit in 2023 but her Group 3 third at York in July was up there with her best efforts; usually wears cheekpieces but blinkers are now tried; no surprise to see her go well as Michael Dods bids to win this race for the third season in a row.

Perked up by the addition of blinkers this summer, wins at Newbury and Goodwood sandwiching near misses at Newbury and Leicester; edging back up the weights but she's still 10lb lower than at this point 12 months ago; one to be interested in.

She hasn't shone in earlier visits to Goodwood but the addition of blinkers this summer has perked her up, winning at Newbury last month before placed efforts back at Newbury and at Leicester; one to consider in a weak race for the grade.

Largely consistent filly who knocked on the door during the summer; latest Windsor run wasn't one of her best but she's been given a bit of time since and isn't the type to stay down for long.

Two wins from three starts this year and the defeat was still a fine run, fourth over C&D from a poor draw in June; possible that stall 1 won't be any use here either but a bigger issue might be her 6lb rise for last month's Hamilton success.

Form & Verdict

Mostly in fine form this term, finishing runner-up for the third start in succession when going down by half a length at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) a fortnight ago, with reopposing stablemate Silent Flame a neck back in third; also has form on softer ground; should give her usual good account.

Landed her sixth win on turf when making all at Nottingham (6f, good) in May for today's rider Oliver Searle off 1lb higher mark; beaten five times since, mostly below form, and steps back up to 7f for the first time since August 2022; vulnerable to less exposed rivals.

Wins have all come in the summer, mainly a bit earlier; offered more last time and a 2lb drop sees her back on her last successful mark, but she's inconsistent and far from certain to back it up.

Form & Verdict

Placed in all three starts at Wolverhampton when trained by Marcus Tregoning and made a successful stable/handicap debut at Lingfield (Polytrack) last month (made all); not disgraced when fourth on 7f Thirsk turf debut (good) 12 days ago but she will need a bit more here; raced only at 7f so far.

Five good runs over 7f on AW this year and all four wins have been on an artificial surface; modest form on turf, on last run, which was back in June 2022, finishing 9l seventh of eight at Chester (7f, good); best watched.

Landed a 5f Carlisle handicap (good to soft) in May and has remained in form since; not beaten far in competitive events over 5f/6f at York the last twice and should play a leading role in what looks a slightly easier race.

Handles most ground and she's gone close in two of her three C&D starts, but neither of her turf starts (on heavy; has handled the surface) this year have matched up, with and without cheekpieces (back on today); reservations for now.

5f on soft ground looks ideal for her and last season's two wins both came off higher marks than today's; last month's return at Southwell (6f) was encouraging and she's more appealing than many.
