Goodwood

Completed a turf double over 1¼m last summer and confirmed that she's as good as ever when off the mark for the season at Kempton on Wednesday (1½m). Very much the one to beat on these terms.

Improved model for Harry Derham this year, making the most of a good opportunity over hurdles at Newton Abbot in June before showing a good attitude to go in again returned to the level fitted with cheekpieces at Salisbury. Didn't do a lot wrong back there last time, either.

Took advantage of her weight-for-age allowance/contested pace when edging a tight finish in the Queen Mother's Cup at York in June. Finished off as well as any when close fourth of 5 at Hamilton (13f) next time before a rare lesser effort in a pretty competitive contest back on the Knavesmire.

In top hands and, switched to turf after 5 months off (gelded), showed much-improved form in a first-time tongue strap when winning a Beverley maiden (7.5f) in June. Heavy defeat over 1¼m 3 weeks ago and he's now upped further in trip with cheekpieces on down in class.

Much improved when opening account in 9f Carlisle handicap (soft) in June. Reverted to free-going ways when sixth of 13 at Ayr (1¼m) 3 weeks ago. Engaged 2.20 Beverley Saturday.

Decisive winner of a nursery at Pontefract (1m, heavy) at the end of last season and turned in a career-best effort when second of 4 in handicap at Chepstow (1½m, good to firm) in July. Failed to make much impact in better handicaps at Ascot since and this is a welcome drop in class.

Won 7f Wolverhampton handicap in January for Jane Chapple-Hyam. Mixed bag for new connections but he ran out a ready winner from his easing mark at Doncaster (1¼m) 2 weeks ago. Has to concede weight all round but he's a player if repeating that level upped in trip.

Left debut form behind when runner-up in novice at Newcastle in November. Unable to repeat that both starts since 7 months apart, latterly on the back of breathing/gelding operations at Lingfield (1m). Significantly up in trip for turf debut.
