Ladbrokes "Free Bet At Ayr" Fillies' Nursery Handicap

150,000gns breeze-up buy who impressed on debut at Yarmouth (7f, good) in July; underwhelming favourite in Salisbury novice (1m, good to firm) since but may have been feeling the ground (hung left); her very useful half-brother Nautical Force won on soft ground; has Group-race entries and retains potential for trainer who won this last year; possible player on nursery debut.

Built upon the promise of her debut second (5f, good) to win at Carlisle in July (7f, good to soft), and she was third of five in a valuable novice at Goodwood (1m, good to firm) last time; begins handicap life on a fair mark and could continue to improve for her top northern trainer.

Two wins from her three nursery starts, the latest at Catterick (7f, soft) in July when coming clear with one who has franked the form since; did it cosily last time and could take a 7lb rise in her stride.

Returned to form to make all by half a length at Carlisle (6f, soft) ten days ago on her second nursery start, beating one who has posted wins either side; kept on well on that occasion and her dam was a 7f winner, both of which bode well for this step up in trip; respected under 6lb penalty.

Has made the frame in novice/maiden races on her last three starts, most recently keeping on well for third when upped to 7f at Lingfield (AW); today's slow ground will provide a stiffer test of stamina and that may well be to her liking; not ruled out on nursery debut.
