The ground would be a doubt for this one as she's got not form with give in the ground and all of her wins have come on far better ground than she will face here. Has often looked capable of better than she has produced and if she can act on the ground a mark of 93 isn't beyond her.

For a four-year-old she has hardly been over raced but she already has three wins to her name from a limited amount of runs and showed up well in a Group 3 last time out. She shaped far better than the result there and may have been closer were it not for suffering some interference. She still looks to have more progress in her dropping back to handicap albeit off a career high mark (ground no problem).

From a stable that are really hitting the mark at the moment her recent form in Listed/Group 3 company has probably tested her a little too much. She ran a respectable race back in handicaps last time out off a 2lb higher mark but the fact remains that her last win came off a mark of 75 and she might find this a little too tough again.

Started the season well enough with a third in a decent handicap on the AW but has had some stiff tasks since then and has run poorly on her last two starts and is passed over here.

Stable had a welcome winner yesterday and this one proved better than ever in June when winning a handicap off a mark of 83 over 7f in June (dominated the field). Failed to run up to that form in three runs since the last two with give in the ground and this looks a class above her normal grade.

Won a maiden when owned by Godolphin over 7f at Newmarket but never really built on that including on soft ground. Her three runs for this yard have been unimpressive and this 6f looks on the sharp side.

7/1
A dual winner as a juvenile (won on debut) she's only had the two runs this year and did look a bit fitter last time out for her comeback over 6f at Nottingham. Still not totally convincing off this mark although her previous runs in this grade leave her with a bit to find against some of these.

16/1
Her only win so far came in a 5f soft ground maiden at Chester and she's looked a little highly tried in handicaps this year. Her original mark looked stiff enough and the handicapper is starting to relent but she may need more help from him yet before she can win.

Forecasts

Sainted (4/7), Futoon (4/1), Shamsaya (7/1), Southern Belle (8/1), Queen In Waiting (12/1), Courier (16/1), Hope Solo (16/1), Iseemist (18/1), Clear Water (50/1)

Verdict

One of the classier races on the card but this is a drop in class for SAINTED who ran in a much better grade last time and shaped far better than her finishing position. The ground is a little bit of a doubt about top weight Southern Belle but if she does handle it she comes into the mix here along with Shamsaya and Futoon although both that pair do have something to find off their marks.
