Creditable third of 8 in 1m Kempton handicap in July but not in the same form over 7f there since. Has first-time blinkers added now stepping back up in trip.

No impact in her 3 qualifying runs but no surprise were she to prove a totally different proposition in handicaps.

First run since leaving William Haggas when respectable third of 6 in 1¼m Salisbury handicap (good to firm) 19 days ago, seeming stretched by the trip. Big player back at 1m in first-time cheekpieces.

Landed back-to-back 1m wins at Bath and Windsor this summer. Did too much too soon when bidding for the hat-trick back at Bath in July. Capable of bouncing back after a break.

Winner at Leicester (1m) in July. Creditable second of 8 in handicap back at Leicester (1¼m, good to firm, 5/1) 22 days ago, rallying. Should be thereabouts again.

Forecasts

Hey Big Spender (15/8), Maverick Style (7/2), First Encounter (9/2), Weston Court (11/2), Desert Footsteps (13/2), Imola (10/1), Snow Eagle (100/1)

Verdict

The drop back to 1m should suit HEY BIG SPENDER, who can strike at the second time of asking for the Ollie Sangster yard. Desert Footsteps appeals as one who can go on to better things in handicaps and is feared most ahead of more-established pair First Encounter and Weston Courage.

  2. Desert Footsteps13/2
  3. First Encounter9/2
