Form & Verdict
Hold-up performer always reliant on good fortune but she only narrowly missed out over C&D two weeks ago (good; fine on softer) and she has to enter the equation.

Took advantage of a good opportunity over C&D last month but came up short off higher marks twice since; conditions will be fine but others are more appealing.

Beat a next-time-out winner when scoring at Ffos Las last month and probably didn't have an ideal track position when fourth at Sandown (also 5f, soft) on Friday; respected if she makes a quick reappearance here.

Won the corresponding race 12 months ago off a 4lb higher mark; first success since when beating four rivals at Ffos Las two weeks ago (5f, soft); this is deeper but a 2lb rise is manageable; more appealing than most.

J: Neil Callan

T: George Baker

Still consistent but hasn't won in three years and isn't as good now; just a fair comeback effort over 5f here 12 days ago in second-time cheekpieces (has often worn a visor) but won't mind going back up in trip now he's had a run.

Form & Verdict
Has only raced over 6f (maiden winner on AW) but 5f might be the way to go as she only folded late on at Windsor after making the running; slow ground is an unknown but respected.

J: Saffie Osborne

Raced on unfavoured part of the track and eased once beaten at Goodwood two days ago on seasonal debut (effort best forgiven); can enter calculations on plenty of 2025 form, including a May success (beat Strike) over C&D.

All three wins have been at 6f but she ended last season with a creditable second over this trip at Newmarket (good); has gone close when fresh in the past and she's a player if she can pick up where she left off.

Form & Verdict
Probably no coincidence that he's finished runner-up in his last six races as often flatters to deceive after travelling well, as was the case last time (eyeshield replaced cheekpieces); no headgear this time but he's tested the patience.

Below par the last twice and from stall two she could do with breaking better than on last month's handicap debut at Newmarket; however, she showed speed and promise in the spring on her first two starts (5f, AW/good to soft) and judged on that evidence she could be on a handy mark.

Slowly away and never figured in a Class 2 at Ascot on stable debut having left David Simcock for 32,000gns; three-time winner (5f-6f) on a dangerous mark and seems to handle most ground.
