Improved on third start to score with a bit more in hand than the official ½l margin at Lingfield, appreciating the step up in trip; up another half a mile today and not guaranteed to stay on breeding, but clearly going the right way.
Steady improvement in three starts as a 2yo, in the frame all three starts, including when 2l third on soft ground here in September; every chance he will stay this far, conditions clearly no issue, and looks a player today.
Solid if unspectacular form as a 2yo but left that all behind when hosing up over 14f at Wolverhampton last week, eased down for a 8l win; 6lb penalty for that but a repeat would make her very hard to beat.
Form so far only moderate for her €260,000 price tag as a foal, but she's bred to want this sort of a trip and she could easily leave it all behind; best effort on latest start when staying on for third (11½f) at Haydock, and she has chances.
STAGLAIRE holds the aces here, having scored with any amount in hand at Wolverhampton last week, and if handling the conditions is going to take plenty of beating. Isayalittleprayer looks likely to appreciate a step up in trip on her second at Lingfield last week and looks the danger, although cases can be made for all of five of them.
