Form & Verdict
Her four wins (18 races) include one in last-gasp fashion over 1m2f last October on her only run at Redcar; hit a new high under usual rider Paula Muir with 3l win at Ayr (again 1m2f on good) two weeks ago, since which she's been raised 7lb but it's a rare run on ground softer than good which gives her most to prove.

Dual C&D winner (good/soft); ran her best race for a while when 2.25l fifth of 11 at Ayr last time (1m1f, good to firm), although that form hasn't been working out.

Out of form in three runs on the AW during the winter (latest over 1m4f) but is better on turf (won twice over 1m2f in May 2024); could go well at a decent price.

Form & Verdict
Hasn't won since 2022 but second twice this year and came close when a neck second at Ripon (1m2f, good) this month, having travelled well; not so hot over that same C&D (good) nine days ago but acts on soft and has to be considered.

Six-time winner who is suited by good or slower ground; has mixed record this season but she won at Carlisle (1m, soft) in June and went very close at Chester (10.3f, good) last time; on same mark as for that last run and she's a big player if she can repeat the form.

J: David Allan

T: Tim Easterby

Won over C&D on good ground in 2021 and came from off the pace to end long losing streak at Carlisle (1m, soft; first-time blinkers) in June but her form has dipped since that latest success and others in this field have more persuasive profiles.

Form & Verdict
Reliable in 2023, including on soft, and makes plenty of appeal on that evidence; has not fired on last two starts this term, with possible excuses though with the heavy ground on first occasion and Brighton track on latest; could be a lot more interesting again today.

Losing run now up to 15 and she has slid down the weights during an inconsistent season; capable still at this level but she's odds-on to pull hard and has had issues at the stalls of late, so isn't without risk.

Form & Verdict
Five wins on varied ground (including heavy) last June-September, four of them over Beverley's 1m2f; has not made a serious impact in his three runs this year but latest (seventh of 12) appeared to be a step back in the right direction and she's now back on her last winning mark.

T: John Wainwright

Six-time course winner (all 1m2f) who goes on any ground; never involved on her C&D reappearance last month, but she should be sharper this time and is now 11lb lower than for her win here last summer; could be dangerous if she gets a good pace and some luck.

Six-time course winner (all 1m2f) who goes on any ground and finished second in this on her first start of 2023; 0-10 since her last win in July, however, and she was 50-1 when suffering big defeat on her reappearance in this race last year; nothing wrong with this mark if she is ready to roll.

Form & Verdict
Improved with cheekpieces on Wolverhampton AW since switched to handicaps on first two starts this year, latterly with 9.4f win; ran creditably there next time but tailed off at Windsor (11.4f) when returned to turf four weeks ago; something to prove after that.

All her three victories have come on the AW but she wasn't disgraced when third of eight in 1m Redcar handicap last month; effective at this much shorter trip so can't be discounted.
