Form & Verdict
Handy sort who did it well when making all to beat a dual subsequent winner in a C&D maiden in January, but pulled too hard on handicap debut here next time and didn't improve for the drop in trip at Wolverhampton (5f, Tapeta) last month; would be a threat to all if bouncing back to her best and responding positively to the first-time hood, though.

Form & Verdict
Improved in each of her three runs on turf last year, culminating with a neck defeat in a 15-runner Leicester novice (6f, heavy) in October; makes her handicap debut after 162 days off but is a half-sister to a Tapeta winner; respected.

Form & Verdict
Three wins over 5f last autumn, the latest of them here in October, but ended the campaign with two below-par efforts; will need to be back to something like her best to win this on return from 139 days off and still has to prove she stays this far.

Form & Verdict
Was having her fourth outing for the yard when winning narrowly at Wolverhampton (6f, Tapeta) last month (first two clear), but failed to stay 7f there last time; return to this trip should suit, but she has already had 14 starts so may be vulnerable to less exposed sorts.

Soft-ground 5f win last April on one of her two visits to this track; three wins in the meantime, latest on Wolverhampton AW (6f) this May; no show on latest start but plenty of 2023 turf form (acts on any going) gives her a big shout.

Improved in her first three starts for Tim Easterby last season, getting off the mark in a Redcar novice (6f, good to firm), but then well held in both starts in nurseries; makes her stable/AW debut after 195 days off (same owner) and may be best watched unless market says otherwise.
