Neville Homes Summer Fillies Handicap (Premier Handicap)

Beaten nine lengths in a Listed event at Navan last time, with her debut form since given added credibility; she has an attractive pedigree and first-time cheekpieces could spark some improvement. But her current mark looks stiff for a filly who has yet to make much impact in handicap company.

Absent for nearly ten months, she returns from a lengthy layoff after being out of form when last seen — well beaten at Leopardstown — and is just 1lb above her last winning mark. She is inconsistent and almost certainly needs this run, but if the break has rejuvenated her there is a mark to work from.

Consistent and performing well until that Cork outing, where she went off too fast for the distance and emptied out in the closing stages; that run can be overlooked. She is generously treated on her all-weather form, handles 6-8f well, and a more restrained approach at a manageable trip should see a much better showing.

Progressive filly who landed a handicap at Gowran Park by a short-head last time, only getting to the line by a thread — the win came off a mark 6lb lower than today's. The new rating asks more and she will need to find further improvement, though her upward trajectory suggests she is not done progressing.

Well beaten over a mile last time when her form fell away sharply, and even at her sharpest three starts back she needed a mark 9lb lower than today's. First-time cheekpieces are worth noting, but she faces significant questions and the current mark still looks too high on recent evidence.
