Beaten 24 times since her successful 2yo debut; some promise for Brian Toomey this summer but she's failed to fire on her last three outings; drops back to 6f on her stable debut and she's on a dangerous mark; could go well.

Scored at Hamilton (5f) in July but he saw his run of good form come to an end when fifth at Ayr (5f) 17 days ago; he's the sort to bounce back.

Holds good claims on the form of his 5f maiden second here in July but he never threatened after being bumped at the start in 5f Newcastle handicap 25 days ago; he shouldn't be written off.

He's offered enough to think a similar race could fall his way, notably when second of 11 at Thirsk last month (6f, good to soft); last time at Ripon easy to forgive having run a solo up the far rail; should handle AW and he's one to consider.
