Won here in May (6f, good to firm) and made it 2-2 at Lingfield when scoring here (6f, good to firm) last month; shapes as though she'll be fine now back down to 5f and she's a strong candidate given her record here.

Both wins were in late 2022 and he has been looking regressive this year; wouldn't be the obvious answer after nearly three months off.

J: Rowan Scott

T: Alice Haynes

His last win was over C&D but that was in a novice in December 2022; very well treated on old form but he's faded in his five runs this year and was beaten 15l at Chepstow (7-2) last time; had a difficult track position in that race but he needs a big turnaround back in trip.

No win since late 2022; has dropped in the weights and his reappearance effort at Doncaster wasn't a bad run but he failed to build on it at Salisbury a fortnight ago; others appeal more.

Successful in Class 5 handicap at Ffos Las (6f, good) last month, taking record to 2-4; looks open to further progress; appealing sort, despite being 4lb higher in a better grade.

Won his novice last season over 7f but kept to 6f this campaign and has won handicaps on good and soft ground; probably not helped by a slow pace when sixth at Newcastle but wasn't all that far away; remains of interest.

Unraced as 2yo; off the mark on third start, a 6f novice on Lingfield turf, and things didn't go his way in two handicaps after; retains potential and refitting the hood is likely to help; ran green over 5f on Wolverhampton debut but of interest back on Tapeta despite the layoff.

Had a spirited end to 2023, winning a handicap and runner-up in a Listed race (both 6f on soft; effective on good to firm) but this year hasn't gone so well and she hasn't repeated a good second, when upped to 7f in a Listed race at Musselburgh in June, in two runs since; blinkers now replace cheekpieces; needs a turnaround.
