Good second over 1m here in May but has disappointed in two subsequent outings. Losing run dates back to March 2017 and others appear to hold stronger claims racing from out of the handicap.

14/1

Stepped up on previous efforts this turf campaign when finishing runner-up over an extended 5f at Bath (firm) last month. Has failed to convince in previous starts at this distance and looks up against it from out of the handicap.

Forecasts

Lady Morpheus (3/1), Imbucato (9/2), Harlequin Rose (9/2), Joyful Dream (5/1), Sea Tea Dea (7/1), Seafaring Girl (12/1), Sugar Plum Fairy (14/1), Rock In Society (14/1), Brother In Arms (16/1), Limerick Lord (20/1), Kellington Kitty (25/1), Bayards Cove (33/1), Princess Florence (33/1), Malaysian Boleh (50/1), Spirit Of Ishy (50/1), Quarto Cavallo (50/1)

LADY MORPHEUS represents a good local yard and she can follow up her last time out success with a victory in the concluding racing on the card. The three-year-old remains open to improvement and she can get the better of fellow last time out winner Harlequin Rose while third place can go the way of Imbucato who is dropping back in trip.
