Form & Verdict

Placed twice over 5.7f on fast ground at Bath this month (classified/handicap) but remains without a win since summer 2022 and today's switch to slower ground is probably not in her favour.

Three wins this year, the latest over C&D (good to soft) in June; below form after racing too freely at Bath last time, though, and probably doesn't have much margin for error off current mark.

Has more ability than most with his sort of mark but he isn't easy to win with; this track suits and Laura Coughlan has won on him a couple of times, so he is one to consider, especially given his penultimate effort was promising.

5f and 6f course winner; handy mark based on last year's win here; came closest to that form this year at Ffos Las latest; back up 4lb and therefore likely to need to pull out more to win again.

Picked up for 7,000gns from Marco Botti, for whom she did most racing over 6f, after finishing close up in a bunch finish at Yarmouth in the spring (first-time blinkers; retained); no certainty the longer trip will suit back from a break judged on that.
