J: Billy Loughnane

C&D winner who scored off 2lb lower at Newcastle in May and she's held her form with five creditable efforts since then; usually comes from off the pace and has claims if she gets the breaks back on AW.

Reliable mare who won won at Newcastle (7f, AW) in March and has finished a close fourth at Lingfield and over C&D (good to firm) in her last two starts; this is competitive against some progressive 3yos but she's been as good as ever this year and should go well again.

Gained her first success when winning a class 6 event here over 6f in January and she proved her stamina for this far when second in a four-runner race over this C&D 25 days ago (reported to have bled from the nose); not ruled out.

Largely consistent mare who was third over 6f at Hamilton on her last two appearances; also suited by this longer trip and won't mind if the ground is slower than good; probably won't be far away.

Form & Verdict
Did best of those held up when third at Wolverhampton (8.5f, Tapeta) last month and got up late to win at Chelmsford (1m, Polytrack) four days ago; carries a 5lb penalty for that success and this drop back to 7f may not be ideal (all six of her wins have been over 1m-1m2f).

Having dropped down the weights she returned to form with a close second at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) a fortnight; this course winner is fine at today's trip and can be in the shake-up if backing up that latest effort.
