Comment: Has won six of her 20 races over hurdles, the latest at Newton Abbot in July (2m1f, good); below-par over same C&D last time; yet to win in eight runs on the Flat, last time finishing sixth of 11 in a Catterick handicap (1m4f, good to firm) when coming back after a wind op; best on good/fast ground.

Comment: Had a wind operation prior to last week's handicap debut at Lingfield (6f, AW) and it produced a transformation, rewarding strong market support in emphatic fashion, eased down inside the final 100yds and still winning by over 5l; clearly well in under a penalty and although he has to prove as good on turf, and the fact he's dropped into a selling handicap is disconcerting, he's hard to oppose.

Comment: Similar level of form in three novice/maiden runs (7f-8.3.f); needs improvement to make winning handicap debut but her pedigree strongly suggests there should be more to come and she represents a top stable; interesting.

Comment: The addition of cheekpieces saw her get off the mark in a 7f handicap at Doncaster in July (good to firm); stays 1m but she wasn't at her best at Southwell 11 days ago; the return of the tongue-tie can help but her chance would likely be compromised by rain.
