Progressive as a juvenile for Richard Hannon notching a 6f treble during July 2016. Aimed highly thereafter including at Listed level and switched to this trainer for 50,000 gns in October 2016. Back from Meydan and a break, so market informative.

Thriving, and comes here seeking a four-timer (well in under a penalty) having scored at Lingfield most latterly. Impossible not to be strongly drawn to this likeable filly despite some minor concerns as to her effectiveness on quicker ground.

Lightly raced, and has had just four career starts, with the pick of her efforts probably coming when a neck runner up to Time Chaser on handicap debut at Sandown in June (1m good to firm). Down in trip, she commands respect.

Hit hard by the handicapper for her Chester success (beat Forever A Lady by 1L), but did well when runner up to Whatsthemessage over C&D latest (Maureb held in third), and this contest looks an obvious reasonable next target.

Probably gone off the boil a little of late and has twice finished behind today's rival Alpine Dream, so clearly has plenty of work to do to reverse placings. This is probably her optimum trip, but her past course form isn't overly inspiring.

Verdict

A race which revolves around the blooming PEACH MELBA. She arrives in the form of her life seeking a four-timer and is well in under a penalty for her latest Lingfield success. She should have no qualms with this track, and there is no real reason to irrationally fear a faster racing surface this afternoon.
  1. Peach Melba
  2. Tirania
  3. Alpine Dream
