J: Oisin McSweeney

Made a winning British debut at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) 12 months ago off a 1lb lower mark; generally struggled since but her mark is dropping and this is an ease in class.

Ex-French filly who won on last summer's British debut at Newmarket (7f, good to firm); launched this campaign with two perfectly respectable runs, the latter over C&D, but others have more pressing claims all the same.

Soft-ground winner in Ireland; twice a runner-up on AW in July but her form has dipped on her last two starts; on a fair mark but others look more persuasive for the win.

Runner-up twice on Tapeta at Southwell (7f/6f) last month and her defeat there on Thursday is probably best overlooked (fractious in stalls and slowly away) but she returns to turf on a fairly tough mark.

Arrives here in a consistent run of form and was bang there when fourth at Redcar latest (1m); probably better over a stiff 7f so firmly in the mix.

Third at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) in May and won there (7f, good to firm) in June; soundly beaten sixth of seven there (7f, good to firm) last time; this lightly raced 4yo is not written off but needs to bounce back.

Dream Illusion

J: Jason Hart

T: Michael Herrington

All four wins have been on AW and last two were over C&D in the spring; remains feasibly treated off only 1lb higher than for her last success and she's run well on turf in last two starts including a near-miss at Wetherby (7f, good to firm); usually comes from off the pace and she's strongly respected back up in trip.

Lightly raced and has improved for stepping up to 7f without headgear, following her second at Southwell with an odds-on defeat of two rivals at Thirsk (good to firm); this mark might be okay for her handicap debut.

Hooded for her first three starts; third at Newcastle (6f, AW) in two starts last year and also ran well in two starts this term (turf/AW), most recently when beaten a neck at Southwell (hood removed) 11 days ago on her first try at this trip; returns to turf and she has strong claims.

Ex-Irish filly who was going beyond 6f for the first time when winning here (7.3f, soft) in June on her second stable start; 7lb higher today and on different ground, but she had 3l in hand last time and could have more to offer at this sort of trip; key player.

Two quick wins in June (7f/1m, good; including here) and she returned to form with a close third at Carlisle (7f, good) a fortnight ago; there is every chance that she'll stay 1m1f and she could be bang there.

Struck form with consecutive wins in June (7f/1m, good); not quite at same level on any of her three outings last month but will appreciate this dip back into Class 6 and her current mark ought to be workable.

Reached the frame in her first three handicaps but her form has gone in the wrong direction in two runs this summer; may have been stretched when upped to 1m2f here last time but she's now 0-8 and others are more persuasive.
