Raced on AW, winning 6f Chelmsford novice for the Crisfords last summer; led until well inside the final furlong when fourth of seven in 5f Southwell handicap on reappearance for new yard 18 days ago; if he comes on only a little for that outing he could take a bit of pegging back in this lower grade.

Ducked left start - in touch with leaders - waiting for room 2f out - brief headway against far rail inside final furlong - weakened inside final 110yds(op 13/2 tchd 7/1)
0-7 but last week's close third (Data Fata Secutus narrowly behind in fifth) of 11 at Newcastle (5f, AW) suggests she can win a race like this; showed promise on turf last summer; likely to go well.

In touch with leaders - pushed along and went second over 1f out - led inside final furlong - edged left and ridden out final 110yds
Took keen hold - in touch with leaders - hung badly right 3f out - soon dropped to rear - weakened when towards near side inside final furlong (jockey said gelding hung badly right-handed)(op 9/2)
Down the field in two 6f handicaps at Dundalk for Andrew Slattery this winter but her new stable is no stranger to success with recruits from Ireland, including with its other runner here; one to note in the betting.
Pulled too hard in a pair 5f AW nurseries at Newcastle at the end of 2025 but settled better ridden with restraint on her recent reappearance there (5f again), keeping on to finish a close fifth of 11, with the reopposing Fille Unique third; entitled to come on for the run and should be on the premises.

Bumped start - in touch with leaders against near rail - switched right halfway - waiting for room over 1f out - kept on well when in the clear inside final furlong - went second final 110yds - did well in the circumstances
Left her first three efforts for Iain Jardine behind when winning over 6f at Newcastle 16 days ago; the way she got on top towards the finish doesn't suggest she's crying out for this drop to 5f for the first time but the fact she's a last-time-out winner counts for something.

In rear - some headway halfway - went fourth final 110yds - not pace to challenge(op 4/1 tchd 10/3)
Dwelt start - took keen hold - midfield - headway from over 2f out - led inside final 110yds - kept on well (trainer's rep had no explanation for the apparent improvement in form)(op 25/1)
Runner-up twice in nurseries at Catterick (5f/6f) last summer; her C&D third on good ground towards the end of July was also creditable but she hasn't been seen since.
