Alondra

9st 9lb

T: Scott Dixon

Has a good C&D record which includes two wins in February, and there wasn't much she could do about her latest defeat on this track, when third to one well ahead of his mark; down in grade and one to consider in first-time headgear.

All three wins have been on Tapeta including two in a row at Wolverhampton (5f) in February; no impact in last two starts but she had some traffic issues at Wolverhampton last time and this step back up in trip is no problem; not ruled out.

Four-time AW winner who was having just his second crack at a turf handicap when good sixth of 17 at Ascot (5f, good to firm) three weeks ago; also switched across from a poor draw to deliver his bid so that effort can probably be upgraded a little further; forecast softer ground is an unknown but otherwise respected.

He has made giant strides for this yard, winning four handicaps since August (two over C&D); solid efforts in defeat on his last two starts but Alondra scooted past him here 24 days ago and he will need to raise his game a level to resume winning ways.
