Form & Verdict
Offered promise in three 1m runs in the autumn; left that form well behind when running away with a 1m4f handicap at Kempton last week, recording a useful Topspeed figure in the process; looks well in under a 6lb penalty and she holds obvious claims.

Back-to-back 1m4f wins on Polytrack/Tapeta earlier this year and the race didn't go her way when fourth of nine at Wolverhampton last week; good chance at this lower level.

J: Andrew Mullen

Well held on turf in her two runs this season but she's 2-3 on AW and both those wins were by 5l in 1m4f handicaps in February; still looks feasibly treated on her best form and she's interesting back in this sphere.

J: Joe Fanning

T: Charlie Johnston

Two stylish wins over 1m4f on AW in February and this lightly raced 3yo hasn't had many goes on turf; however, tailed off when back on grass at Salisbury (1m4f, good to firm) recently and has something to prove after that.

Form & Verdict
Off the mark at the ninth attempt when producing a strong finish over 1m2f at Chelmsford 11 days ago, winning a 0-55 with plenty to spare; 5lb higher today; extra yardage may suit; he will need more to follow up though.

Runner-up at Brighton (1m4f, soft) last September but he's been out of sorts under both codes since including a remote fifth over hurdles at Plumpton last week; blinkers now return but he's 1-30 on AW and has plenty to prove back on the Flat.

Consistent form figures (311333) on AW since December, the two wins gained at classified level (7f/9.5f); not without a chance, provided she's as effective back on turf.
