Form & Verdict

Very average form thus far (1m2f-1m6f) but she's a well-bred filly who could be a slow burner and has to be of interest in this grade of handicap; her Newmarket trainer's only runner on the card.

Hinted at ability when in midfield on her Newbury debut (1m2f, good to soft) in April, but didn't back it up when last of six at Newmarket (1m4f, good) last month; still has time on her side and shouldn't be written off just yet.

Now 0-14 but placed plenty of times and going beyond 1m2f might trigger something; should give her running, which can't be said for many.

Maiden; not beaten too far when fifth of ten in 1m2f classified here in August and stamina for 1m4f never had a chance to be tested at Musselburgh since, as he was hampered when starting to move forward; likely needs more than he's shown so far, though.

Yet to win (0-9); left Jim Bolger for 13,000gns in July, and hasn't looked anything special over 12.5f here in two attempts for Adam Nicol; usually races keenly, and drops back to a mile with plenty to prove.

First and a close fourth after being hooded in 1m2f good-ground handicaps at Ayr and likely that soft ground was to blame for last time; on a dangerous mark with Mohammed Tabti taking off 5lb.

Calyx gelding has been much improved since the hood went on, opening his account at Ayr (1m2f) in July before a very good fourth of 12 there 17 days ago when set plenty to do; player off an unchanged mark.

Stepping up in trip with a first-time hood (retained) proved to be the key when getting off the mark over C&D (good) last month; 6lb higher but on an upward curve and should be hard to beat.
