No impression and well beaten on last three starts for the yard since a win at Chelmsford last August over 2m, including last of 11, beaten 60L last time out in November.
FIrst start on the Flat fro yard was an encouraging 3L defeat here, in a 1m3½f handicap on good ground in May, when fifth of 10.
Winner over 1m5f here off a mark of 54 in February but failed to back that effort up when held off a 5lb higher mark nine days later and fourth of eight, beaten 21L, here, on the first of the month on good ground over 1m3½f.
0/8 in her career and beaten 24L off a 5lb higher mark at Yarmouth and 17½L in a Doncaster handicap over 1m2f.
Went down narrowly to Ryeolliean over hurdles at Plumpton in April (2m4f). However, lost his way a shade of late, pulled up Kempton in a Handicap hurdle, sixth of 10, here, in 1m3½f handicap and last day, seventh of 14, beaten 10½L in Kempton handicap over 2m.
No form in a couple of starts for this trainer and absent from the track since February 2016, before 13th of 14 beaten 34L in Kempton handicap over 2m last month.
Off for over 18 months prior to finishing seventh of 11 over 1m6f at Yarmouth (good-to-firm) in May. Probably best watched at present.
Won at Chelmsford (1m5½f, AW) in March. Beaten just a nose next time from 1lb higher than today, so has claims on that basis, though out of form recently.
Lightly raced filly was taking a considerable step up in trip at Kempton over 2m, in a class 6 handicap, when sixth of 12, beaten 14½L.
A 21 race maiden, who finished runner up twice on the AW at Lingfield earlier this year, but hasn't looked quite so sharp more latterly., including last of 12 last day, beaten 14½L.
Finished runner-up in first time cheekpieces at Newcastle over an extended 1m4f last September. Cheekpieces left on since including for heavy defeat at Ayr (good) over 1m7f last time out and more needed here.
Fairly lightly raced over the past three years, just five starts. Improved peformance last time out when fourth of 12, beaten 1¾L in a Nottingham handicap over 1m6f.

Hermarna (9/2), Money Talks (5/1), L'ami De Rouge (5/1), Hiorne Tower (11/2), Kalimantan (8/1), Honourable Knight (10/1), Ballyfarsoon (10/1), Esspeegee (14/1), Le Tissier (14/1), Grand Facile (14/1), Par Three (20/1), Toptempo (33/1), Astrosecret (40/1)
We may see Hiorne Tower taking up the running on his own here, in the early stages of this 2m handicap. Hermarna, Le Tissier and Money Talks will possibly be at the head of affairs of the following bunch. The early pace on here will cause the race to fall in to the hands of those able to quicken off this kind of pace, where we will see, big outsider, Toptempo, Grand Facile, fourth of eight, beaten 21L, here, on the first of the month on good ground over 1m3½f and the selection, HONOURABLE KNIGHT, improved performance last time out when fourth of 12, beaten 1¾L in a Nottingham handicap over 1m6f, doing their best work late on.
- Honourable Knight
- Grand Facile
- Toptempo
