Front-runner who came second twice at Bath (11.6f/1m2f, firm) last month; subsequent lesser effort there is probably best overlooked (slowly away after anticipating start), and she can give this a good shot.

In-form mare whose record at Bath features wins in 2024/2025 and a couple of second-place finishes (over 11.6f/1m2f) since returned to turf from AW, the penultimate occasion behind Moon Over The Sea; weighted to reverse the placings; good chance.

Won a C&D classified event to cap off a positive run of form in March; next three starts were over hurdles and he may have needed the run back on the Flat here last month; finished behind two of today's rivals in that race but he wasn't beaten far and has possibilities if he can build on that.
