Returned to form when creditable second of 5 in novice (9/4) at Newmarket (7f, good) 10 days ago. Looks fairly treated on handicap debut and is one for the shortlist.

Confirmed debut promise when going one better in 7f Wolverhampton maiden in April but ran poorly on handicap/turf debut at Windsor since. Needs to bounce back.

Showed fair form in maidens/minor events, including when fourth of 6 at Beverley (1m, good to firm) 12 days ago. May have more to offer on handicap/tapeta debut.

Showed ability in all 3 starts thus far, particularly when fourth in a Nottingham novice (1¼m) in May. Likely improver now sent handicapping.

Lightly-raced maiden who found improvement when good fourth of 10 in handicap at Newbury (1m, good to soft, 9/2) 24 days ago, faring best of those ridden prominently. Cheekpieces on first time. Warrants respect.

Off the mark at fifth attempt when landing 10-runner handicap at Nottingham (1m, good to soft) 32 days ago. 5 lb rise looks manageable and she looks a big player on tapeta debut here.

Back to winning ways at Windsor last month and found further improvement when good second of 5 in handicap (4/5) at Nottingham (1¼m, good) 15 days ago. Enters calculations.

Much improved when third in Wetherby minor event (1m) in April. Not in quite same form on handicap bow at Hamilton since and cheekpieces now added for tapeta debut.

Switched to handicaps with cheekpieces added, found some improvement when fourth of 9 at Doncaster (1m) in May. Disappointed at Salisbury since, though, and others appeal more.

Cost €165,000 as 2-y-o and has shown something to work on, fourth of 13 in maiden at Lingfield (1¼m) 31 days ago. Another who could improve for switch to handicap company, although opening mark looks stiff.

Caught the eye on handicap debut when fourth of 11 at Haydock (1m) in May, enduring a nightmare passage and finishing with plenty left in the tank. Failed to build on that in the mud at Lingfield subsequently but can't be ruled out. First-time cheekpieces/tongue tie applied.

Made a winning reappearance after being gelded at Chelmsford (1m) in March and backed that up when third at Kempton 13 days later. Best effort since when creditable fifth of 10 in handicap over longer trip at Wolverhampton 7 days ago but rather looks summed up by his mark.

Kalokalo (3/1), Alpine Culture (5/1), Lightning Glory (7/1), Just A Gambler (7/1), Lillie Margot (9/1), Areti (10/1), Paranjape (11/1), Decem Starr (14/1), Picture Palace (14/1), Cliff Danger (16/1), Sovereign Bay (22/1), Pepsea (25/1), Constant Star (33/1), Lightening Lad (66/1)

Verdict

LILLIE MARGOT built on her encouraging handicap debut when scoring at Nottingham last month and still looks feasibly treated. She can go in again. Kalokalo and Areti head the list of dangers.

  2. Kalokalo3/1
