Beat one rival and ran to an ordinary RPR in 1m AW maiden at Kempton, having been friendless in the betting; longer trip may help but she needs to improve sharply.

50-1 shot in both starts, finishing third at Windsor (good to firm) then well beaten at Goodwood (soft); something to find on the debut form and looks one for handicaps.

Belied his 50-1 odds when keeping on for third on last month's debut at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm), albeit no match for the easy winner; could improve significantly for that first run and may have a part to play.

Form & Verdict

Somewhat difficult to gauge, having produced varying RPRs in four races; best effort when close second, clear of remainder, over C&D (good to soft) in May; that form gives her a leading chance.

Pulled 11l clear of the third when losing out by a neck to a newcomer from the Haggas yard on her 1m2f Leicester reappearance in May but the reopposing Incensed was 3l ahead of her when the pair clashed at Kempton (1m3f) since.

Similar type to Kitty Furnival, having shown assorted RPRs in four runs; peak effort when close second at Carlisle (1m3f, good) on penultimate occasion; major contender on that form.

Has got better with each of her three runs and was a close second at Carlisle last time (1m3f, good; Cabrera third); on form she has the second-best chance in this line-up (quite a way behind Miss Cynthia).

Creditable third on first two starts (7f/1m2f, soft/good to soft) then not disgraced in Listed Cheshire Oaks; merely mid-division on handicap debut at Haydock (1m2f, good) in June and could do with settling better, but she's entitled to respect in view of her previous promise.

The form is nothing special but she can improve upon her debut fourth at Newmarket (7f, heavy) last November, with this longer trip a plus point; market should be revealing.

Verdict

With another step forward likely, Lingfield runner-up SEA JOURNEY is taken to go one better. Kitty Furnival, back at the scene of her peak effort, is second choice. Lady La Fay is also in the mix, while Lasting Love would command particular respect if the ground is softer than good.[Steve Boow]
