Just one win to her name but she comes here in good order, most recently bumping into a well-handicapped opponent at Hamilton eight days ago (5f, good); should be in the thick of it again.

Doesn't win very often but had her day in the sun when making all over C&D in June off 4lb lower; largely consistent since but win record of 1-20 on turf is offputting.

Made all to win a C&D handicap last month; in and out since but she wasn't beaten far at Ayr on Monday and this mark is unlikely to prove beyond her; one to consider.

Made all at Musselburgh (5f, good) in June but she's been up and down since and was a well-held fourth at Hamilton last time; overall record is now 2-30 and she comes with risks attached; one of three runners for the yard.

Nine-time turf winner who is well treated on his win at Catterick last spring; has been up and down since but he's finished runner-up four times this year including at Catterick (5f, good to firm) on his penultimate run; could be dangerous in another switch of headgear.

Two of his three wins have come over C&D, the latest last August off a 4lb higher mark; not found his best in two runs this year but he's the type to pop up at some point.
