Progressive form, winning 7f novice at Kempton 26 days ago. Likely more to come from her now handicapping.

Lightly-raced maiden. Blinkered for 1st time, bit below form 4 lengths fourth of 11 to Zander in maiden at Galway (7f, good, 15/8) 42 days ago. Leading claims on handicap debut if at his best.

Debuchet 17.30 Listowel 1 Pt Win @ Evs (bog)

Useful hurdler. Below form third of 19 in novice hurdle at Galway (21f, soft, 9/10) 42 days ago, finding less than looked likely. Back down in trip. Sets solid standard on best form.

Smart colt. 13¼ lengths fifth of 7 to Poet's Word in King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes (12/1) at Ascot (12f, good to firm) 49 days ago. This less demanding assignment can only aid his cause.
