Related to some smart types but starting to struggle as of late. Seventh in 1m3f Windsor handicap when last seen and might be vulnerable to improvers.

Very nearly clung on to victory over C&D on reappearance and bar one disappointing effort, she bounced back to form when 6L third at Wolverhampton (1m6f) last time. Respected back over this C&D.

Showed promise on debut effort and subsequently built on that when close fourth at Bath (1m) last month. Given likeable opening handicap mark but there are questions about the trip.

Slightly struggled in novice company and was expected to do better on handicap bow last time but disappointed at Wolverhampton (1m6f) last month. Eased 2lb so is getting some respite by the handicapper.

Only raced three times so obviously still open to improvement, but took another step back when upped to 1m6f last time at Wolverhampton. Needs to prove himself at this distance.

Handicapped on three runs in novice company to date, all without much success. Highly tried behind smart horses in Highest Ground and Darain on last two starts and while this is easier, he has plenty to find.

Forecasts

Isayalittleprayer (13/8), Tawtheef (15/8), Selecto (6/1), Speech Room (8/1), Machios (17/2), Magnificat (22/1)

Verdict

This handicap looks like it will be between the two main protagonists, and one is inclined to side with the more exposed ISAYALITTLEPRAYER. She fared best of the re-opposing rivals at Wolverhampton last time and with her best effort coming when only defeated by a neck over C&D, she could be very dangerously poised. Tawtheef could be anything and showed good promise over 1m last time, however stamina remains a question mark. For the minor honours, Selecto looks the most exposed but might shape better now switched to a synthetic surface.
