Runner-up three times before winning last two starts, most recently a seller against 9 rivals at this C&D (11/10) 8 days ago. More on her plate back in a nursery but she's a straightforward and hardy juvenile.
|
Showed poor form in two 5f maidens before winning a weak 9-runner maiden at Ripon (6f, 28/1) 30 days ago, suited by the longer trip. Making handicap debut and mark asks for more.
|
Claiming winner and better form in nurseries, second of 5 at Newcastle (2/1) 26 days ago, led approaching final 1f before headed in last 100 yards. Nicely clear of the rest on that occasion so a bold bid seems assured.
|
Won twice since being gelded, including over this trip on AW. Fourth of 7 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10/3) 25 days ago, running respectably back at 5f after a weight rise. Expected to be on the premises returned to 6f.
|
Finished second in all three career starts, most recently when going down fighting in a Beverley maiden (4/5) 42 days ago. Makes nursery debut back at this course where she has run well previously.
|
Placed twice in novice races before struggling in better company and finishing tenth of 11 in nursery at Thirsk (16/1) 18 days ago. First-time cheekpieces replace blinkers.
|
Finished third in three consecutive maidens but lacked a change of gear when fourth of 10 in seller here 8 days ago, racing off the pace and never on terms.
|
Best effort when second at Carlisle in June. Run flattened out when sixth of 12 in maiden at Beverley (6/1) 7 days ago. This might stretch him.
|
Won a 5f maiden at Beverley in August but finished last of 8 in a handicap at Musselburgh (40/1) 11 days ago, slowly away and always behind. The return to 6f could help.
|
Lightly-raced maiden who took a backward step when ninth of 10 in maiden at Beverley (66/1) 81 days ago, failing to build on previous effort. Makes handicap debut over extra furlong and this probably a better guide.
|
Showed promise when second at Chester (6f) in July but that form didn't work out. Finished fourth of 8 in nursery debut at Musselburgh (5f) at 15/2 11 days ago after diving right from stalls. First-time cheekpieces applied.
|
Modest form on turf and AW, most recently when third of 5 in handicap at Ffos Las (9/2) in first-time visor 15 days ago. Yet to win in 6 starts and appears vulnerable to less-exposed types.
|
Showed more than on first two starts when eighth of 13 in Newcastle novice (150/1) 16 days ago. Making handicap debut returning to 6f which should suit better based on previous runs.
|
Limited impact in maidens, sixth of 16 in novice at Thirsk (150/1) 18 days ago, faring better when upped to 6f. Nurseries more suitable.

Forecasts
Mossvale Diva (7/4), Sailor Batt (11/2), Head For Freedom (11/2), Territorial Star (9/1), Empress Olivia (10/1), Dream More (12/1), Red Savitar (14/1), Dandy's Rocket (14/1), Contorno (18/1), Blazing (20/1), Cosmic Clarets (20/1), Soul Warrior (40/1), Jack Rabbit Slims (40/1), Brimfulofattitude (80/1)
HEAD FOR FREEDOM has improved considerably since stepping up to 6f, finishing second on his last two starts and he looks primed to go one better. Dandy's Rocket, a dual-nursery winner since being gelded, is capable of making his presence felt, while Mossvale Diva brings solid form to the table in her quest for the hat-trick.
- Head For Freedom11/2
- Dandy's Rocket14/1
