Form & Verdict

Improving filly who has been successful twice at about 1m3f since handicapping and ran well over 1m5f at Newbury (good) most recently; now upped in class but receives plenty of weight from her two rivals and is interesting upped further in distance.

Form & Verdict

AW winner on sole 2yo start then finished 10l fourth to Westover in the Classic Trial here in April; finished about 3l behind Savvy Knight at Royal Ascot (led) but now gets 4lb pull with that rival and the smaller field will help if front-running tactics are retained.

Form & Verdict

Stayed on for fourth in Royal Ascot handicap (1m4f, good to firm; now 2lb higher) five weeks ago, losing his unbeaten record but running perfectly well and shaping as if he'll be suited by this new trip; 3-3 previously; still open to further progress and commands respect.
