Winning hurdler but didn't beat a rival in two starts on the Flat for previous connections in 2022. Drops markedly in trip for return to the Flat but remains difficult to fancy in this sphere.

£52,000 yearling. Sergei Prokofiev filly hinted at ability with how he went through the race on debut but ultimately achieved little, finishing seventh of 8 in maiden at Redcar (7f, good to firm, 12/1) 9 days ago, finding little. In excellent hands and could show more over this sharper test.

4,000 gns Showcasing filly. Dam, runner-up at 7f, half-sister to high-class winner up to 6.5f Advertise (by Showcasing). Offered something to work with when third of 10 in maiden at Newbury (6f, good to firm, 66/1) on debut 13 days ago. Should improve for that experience.
|
Big prices runner-up in a 7f Newcastle maiden in June and ran at least as well back on turf when 10/3, third of 6 in novice at Carlisle (5.8f, good to soft) 14 days ago. Should give another good account.
|
Well-bred sort finished runner-up behind a fairly useful type on debut but didn't progress when finishing third in a couple of subsequent starts over 6f, latest at Fairyhouse in May. Has since left Ger Lyons but she looks to have been found a good opportunity on debut for new connections.

Media Darling (11/10), Sapphire Princess (9/4), Portsoken (3/1), Rocktoun Heart (10/1), Apple Catcher (22/1), Just Dottie (125/1)
SAPPHIRE PRINCESS finished runner-up behind a fairly useful sort on debut earlier this season but didn't progress as expected for Ger Lyons. She looks to have been found a good opportunity on first start for new connections and is taken to get off the mark at the expense of Media Darling who showed ability when third at Newbury on debut, shaping as though she'd improve for the experience. Of the rest, Rocktoun Heart has shown improvement with each start and should give another good account.
