Sky Sports Racing Sky 415 Handicap

So close to adding a victory at 2m to last year's five 1m6f wins when just touched off by Simiyann at Haydock (good to firm) last month; other side of recent in-and-out profile again evident when 10l adrift of Russian Rumour at Nottingham last time, however.

Narrow defeat of The Crafty Mole at Haydock (2m, good to firm) last month was the second time he's won when a headgear type has been reapplied; derived far less benefit from those cheekpieces last time, however, and they're on again; handicap record off official marks in the 70s reads 0-14.

Just 1-38 but failed by only a short head at Goodwood 12 days ago (1m4f, good to soft), and the cheekpieces debuted there are retained; yet to record an RPR lower than 81 on good to firm, and rates a player.

10l clear of The Crafty Mole at Nottingham two runs ago; almost exclusively campaigned around galloping tracks these days, but she did win a maiden hurdle here in 2021 and went very close off this mark on her last attempt over this C&D two years ago (good to firm; 0-70).

Major personal best upped to 1m6f here last week (good; RPR 78), and no surprise to see her out again quickly under a penalty for that 13l romp; step up from 0-60 demands more, but she looks ready to kick on now.
