Placed final 2 starts around this time last year for Ralph Beckett and changed hands for 120,000 gns after. Too free to last out when seventh of 8 in handicap at Newmarket (1m) on return in May and a hood is now fitted on the back of a breathing op.
|
Wasn't winning out of turn when landing the odds at Beverley in June. Well held both starts in handicaps since, latterly at Brighton (8f, good) 23 days ago.
|
Won handicaps at Wolverhampton (9.5f) and Doncaster (1m) in June. Turned over following a tardy start in hat-trick bid at Beverley (8.5f) last month but quickly back on the up when second at Haydock 3 weeks ago, no extra near line. Cheekpieces/tongue tie on and she looks well weighted.
|
Upped his game when finding only one too good in 7f handicap here last month. Unsuited by how the race panned out when sixth of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW) 17 days ago, left with lot to do, and looks worth a try at 1m.
|
Confirmed debut promise 6 months on when landing the odds at Ripon in May. Fifth of 6 in handicap at Windsor (10f, good to firm, 5/1) 39 days ago and drop in trip looks a good move given how headstrong she has looked.
|
Left John S. O'Donoghue for 20,000 gns and well below form when fifth of 9 in novice at Nottingham (8.3f, good to firm) 29 days ago.

Forecasts
Golden Myrrh (13/8), King Of Charm (5/2), Drink Dry (4/1), Sea Regal (11/2), L'Ennemi (14/1), Currumbin (66/1)
Having won twice in June, GOLDEN MYRRH quickly got back on the up when an excellent second at Haydock 3 weeks ago and with headgear fitted, she looks the answer. King of Charm may improve for the step up to 1m so he's a threat, while in contrast, the drop in trip may also help the free-going filly Sea Regal.
