Often front-runner; course winner over 7f last June and gained her fifth success when winning at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) five starts ago; behind Barmyblade when third over this C&D before a lesser effort at Thirsk 11 days ago; could bounce back in this lower grade.

J: Connor Beasley

T: Tracy Waggott

Prominent-racer who likes it here, winning for Connor Beasley over C&D last month off 4lb lower from stall 1; always wide from stall 9 behind Daytona Lady last time and that's best ignored but there's not much wiggle room off this mark.

Two wins this summer, the latest over C&D 13 days ago when having a bit to spare; a 4lb higher mark may prove less of a hindrance than the widest stall.

Ran well on his stable debut at Wetherby (5.5f, good to firm) in June and built on that when winning at Thirsk (7f; fifth and sixth have won since) 19 days ago; this drop back in trip won't be an issue and he has good claims off a 4lb higher mark.

Four solid efforts for his current yard during a light campaign, following up his 7f Thirsk win off 5lb lower with a second here (6f) five weeks ago; doubt he'd want much rain but the step back up in trip will suit otherwise and his claims are obvious.

Front-running wins at Thirsk and over this C&D in July (both on good to firm), the most recent coming off a 3lb lower mark than today's; below his best here on his last two starts but is worth forgiving for the latest effort, having come across to the near side rail; may be able to bounce back.

Front-running wins at Thirsk and over C&D last month; only fourth behind Miss Rainbow here 13 days ago but he used up a lot of energy getting to the front from the widest stall; better drawn today and he should have a big run in him.

Six-race maiden; refused to settle and built up a clear lead at Beverley (7.5f, good to firm) three weeks ago, but was caught inside the final furlong and finished third of eight; there was plenty of encouragement to be taken from that effort and he should be suited by the drop back in trip.

Seemingly aided by first-time tongue-tie when causing 28-1 surprise on AW in February (6f) but absent since running as though something was amiss the following month and has become far too inconsistent to rely upon; not the percentage call on first turf start since summer 2024.
