Form & Verdict
Won a couple of Wolverhampton novices last year (9.5f, Tapeta), but showed she could handle Polytrack when beaten a neck over C&D last month; not out of it from 2lb higher, but a suspicion that she may again be vulnerable to a progressive 3yo.

Form & Verdict
Kempton maiden winner (1m, Polytrack) last December and back to winning form in a five-runner Newbury handicap (1m, good to firm) last month; turned over at 4-11 in a three-runner event at Yarmouth (1m, good to firm) 17 days ago, but may not have been seen to best effect in that tactical contest; a contender.

Enhanced her good AW record when getting on top towards the finish over 1m here three weeks ago; only 2lb higher and her strong finish on that occasion suggests she should prove equally as effective back at 1m2f; player.

J: Tom Marquand

T: William Haggas

Off three months since an ordinary effort at Newmarket (1m2f, good to soft), but her AW record reads 21323 and her third of 14 in a warm handicap at Kempton (1m, Polytrack) in September looks solid form in the context of this race; major chance.

OR: 81

Form & Verdict
Two wins last year including a Wolverhampton novice (7f, Tapeta) on her only AW start; best effort since returning in May when beaten less than a length into third of six at Chester (7.6f, good) last month and may have gone even closer with a clear run; the winner has gone in again twice since; respected off the same mark.

Soft-ground winner who is below her last winning mark and ran some pretty good races in defeat last month; however, she made it 0-8 for the year when finishing last here (7f, soft) last week and has to bounce back.

Form & Verdict
Three wins last year, two on the AW including one here (6f) and put up her best effort when narrowly beaten in a Newmarket Listed contest (1m, good) on her final 2yo start; not threatened since returning in April, including back in handicap company at Goodwood last month, and is quite exposed for a 3yo after 23 starts; needs plenty more.

Two wins over 1m last year including one on the Kempton Polytrack; fair third of five on her reappearance/handicap debut at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm) last month, but may have found the race coming too soon when well held at Goodwood (1m2f, good to firm) 12 days later; surface no problem, but not sure return to this trip will suit.
