Form & Verdict
Started in handicaps with a bang last autumn but has rather lost her way since, finishing last of eight at Catterick (5f, good to soft) four weeks ago; hard to be confident but this is a drop in grade.

In top form at present, winning her second on the trot, over C&D (fourth course win) last Tuesday; carries 5lb penalty but every chance there is more in the tank and a hat-trick is a real possibility.

She won three times in the second half of last year (6f/7f, good/AW) and her current mark isn't necessarily beyond her; a market check is advised but she may need this comeback run.

Form & Verdict
Returned from 135 days off to win a 5f handicap at Musselburgh (good) in April; two creditable runs have followed (third over C&D latterly) and she should go well again.

Had excuses for her Hamilton performance 11 days ago (anticipated the start and hit the gate) having previously made a promising reappearance when third of nine over this C&D (good to firm); 1lb below her last winning mark and very much of interest back in a 0-55.

Inconsistent in 2025 and she finished last on her final two outings in November; however, one of her two wins last year came on her reappearance in April, so she's capable when fresh; not discounted.

Form & Verdict
Only 2-25 but latest win came off this mark last summer and also placed on both visits here; pulled too hard and weakened on 5f Carlisle reappearance but that should have knocked some of the freshness out of him and his yard is in better form now; no surprise were he to go well.

Now 3lb lower than when winning this 12 months ago (soft); however, he's failed to shine on either outing this year and slow ground, which seems unlikely to prevail today, is probably preferable.

Stamina was probably stretched over 7f at Ayr on Saturday evening, his first outing for 140 days; may find this test more suitable with a first-time visor also added.

Found traffic a couple of times since winning a selling handicap off 3lb lower in the first-time visor in June (all 5f, Hamilton); shouldn't mind going back up to 6f for a trainer also responsible for Ramon Di Loria.

Got the better of Kyber Crystal in a selling handicap over C&D last month (visored first time); not so good back here last week (behind Sixcor) and although he didn't get the cleanest run through, he didn't look unlucky; others appeal more.
