Very good head second of 10 to Harswell Ruby in handicap (12/1) at Doncaster (8f, good) 15 days ago, slowly away. Cheekpieces back on and merits serious consideration.

1 win from 2 runs this year. Career best when winning 10-runner handicap at Doncaster (8f, good, 6/1) 15 days ago by head from Seed Investor, battling well. Not taken lightly in her current mood.

Respectable 6 lengths third of 6 to Triple Double A in handicap (11/1) at Yarmouth (8f, good to firm) 9 days ago. Can give a good account.

Lightly-raced maiden. 40/1, twelfth of 13 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f) 38 days ago. Must improve.

Completed a hat-trick in 7-runner handicap (4/9) at Windsor (8.1f, good) 5 days ago. A likely player under a 5 lb penalty.
Timeform Verdict 
Ivan Furtado's SEED INVESTOR went down only narrowly at Doncaster last time and is weighted to go one better here at the chief expense of recent Bath scorer Thiscouldbefun. Harswell Ruby is another firmly in the picture along with Ventura Dream and Triple Double A.
