It's hard to believe we've seen the best of SEVEN SISTERS given her pedigree/connections. She's fancied to resume winning ways on return to a more conventional track, while Supplicate arrives on a roll and stands out as the main danger.

Verdict
Lightly-raced/well-bred 3-y-o filly. Chased home subsequent winners first 2 starts before getting off the mark in 4-runner novice at Doncaster (1¼m) last month. Did well to get within 1¼ lengths when fourth on handicap bow at Chester since. Strong claims on a more suitable track.

Verdict
Progressive filly. Won all 3 starts since an eye-catching debut last October, ridden positively/always holding when scoring by ¾-length on handicap bow at Nottingham 2 weeks ago. Encouraging to see her turned out relatively quickly given previous gaps in her CV. Makes plenty of appeal.

Verdict
€140,000 Blue Point gelding. Firmly on the up when doubling his tally at Newbury (1m, good to soft) in June. Didn't meet expectations over same C&D (good to firm) latest, however, the longer trip could help.

Verdict
Improved model for Harry Derham this year. Made the most of a good opportunity over hurdles at Newton Abbot in June. Cheekpieces on first time when narrowly resuming winning ways in 4-runner C&D handicap latest. Vulnerable off 3 lb higher in a better race.

Verdict
160,000 gns son of New Bay. Improved for switch to handicaps when making all in pair of all-weather handicaps over the spring. Again below that form on return from 7 weeks off when 5½ lengths third of 4 at Wolverhampton (fourth won since). Longer trip/return to turf both question marks.

Verdict
Has good record under Oisin Murphy, getting off the mark in a course novice (7f) last autumn before runner-up finishes in consecutive 1¼m Sandown handicaps this summer. Didn't see out his race up in trip against Ascot latest but may do better back down in trip sporting more severe headgear.
