Won a maiden over 1m at Ayr last April but offered very little in handicaps next 4 starts spread out over best part of a year. Hood employed.

Opened account at Wolverhampton in March and cast aside a lesser effort at Southwell returned to former venue when doubling tally last month. 5 lb rise fair enough if carrying on the good work on turf.

Back-to-back winner in November and stepped up on reappearance when creditable fourth of 8 in handicap at Newcastle (7f) at the beginning of the month. Finished with running left at Beverley last week and looks to be building up to something.

Winning debut over 6f at Southwell in November but failed to replicate that level in 3 all-weather starts soon after. Back from 5 months off and now switches to turf.

Two 7f wins last year. Made a respectable return to action at Southwell last month but failed to really threaten both outings since. Cheekpieces need to perk her up.

Placed first 3 starts last year but signed off with a heavy defeat and was readily brushed aside on reappearance 25 days ago (8.5f). This will reveal more.

Bred to be useful and left 2-y-o form well behind when making a winning handicap debut at Newmarket 3 weeks ago. That was a better race than this so she'll take plenty of stopping from 3 lb higher.

Held back by refusal to settle on occasions in nurseries, for all she did hit the frame on 4 occasions. Returns with yard among the winners but she needs to raise her game.

Forecasts

Velvet Rhythm (1/1), Blufferonthebus (4/1), Amelia's Joy (6/1), Homestrait (7/1), In A Hurry (14/1), Thehunnebelllegacy (16/1), Ten Sixty Six (18/1), Rosemary May (20/1), Sahara Magic (33/1)

Verdict

It's hard to escape the claims of VELVET RHYTHM given she won in a higher grade than this on reappearance from just 3 lb lower and stall 2 looks good spot to attack from. Amelia's Joy and Homestrait are a couple of potential threats.
