Two wins from 6 runs this year. Career best when winning 11-runner nursery (4/1) at Thirsk (7f, soft) 11 days ago. Commands respect in hat-trick bid.

Better for Goodwood debut effort when twice placed in novice events at Newbury (both over 6f). Didn't look straightforward on handicap bow at Newmarket since but 7f will suit.

Placed from the front last 3 starts and should give another good account. Her level is well established compared to the bulk of her rivals, though.

GALILEO GLASS landed a bit of a gamble when making a winning nursery bow in a big field at Doncaster and is taken to follow up with this extra 1f unlikely to be a problem. Queen's Heir got better with each run for Kevin Ryan and her opening mark looks a fair one starting out for a new yard, while Hollow Steel is another to consider as she bids for a hat-trick.

  1. GALILEO GLASS (IRE)
  2. QUEEN'S HEIR (IRE)
  3. HOLLOW STEEL (IRE)
