Form & Verdict
Triple turf winner who is on a dangerous mark and has finished runner-up in France (1m2f handicap/1m1f claimer) in her last two starts; now switches back to quicker ground but she's a versatile type who is not ruled out back in a handicap; change of headgear.

dwelt start, ridden over 2f out, never on terms (jockey said mare was never travelling. trainer further reported the mare was unsuited by the good, good to soft going and would prefer a firmer surface)

Form & Verdict
6yo who made it 5-11 for Mick Appleby when completing a hat-trick at Lingfield (7f, AW) last Saturday; 4lb higher on this step back up in grade but she remains feasibly treated on her best turf form and has won over this trip; should make another bold bid.

Productive 2022 campaign included five wins (7f-8.5f, turf/AW); close second in fillies' handicap at Southwell (1m; tongue-tie applied) on New Year's Day; leading player off same mark (likely to go up in weights once reassessed).

3 yo Filly

OR: 82

Form & Verdict
Showed promise in maiden/novice events but her form has really taken off with her wins in C&D handicaps (good/good to firm) in last two starts; up another 5lb but she showed a good attitude when making all last time and is open to more progress; big player again in hat-trick bid.

Close at Lingfield last June in her sole AW race; three wins over 1m on the two Newmarket tracks last year but she has not shone in her three starts this season, two of which were also at Newmarket; just 1lb above her last winning mark but the first-time headgear needs a seriously positive response.

Three wins over 1m on the two Newmarket tracks last year, but well held in both starts on the Rowley Mile since returning in April; interesting to see how she copes with going around a bend again and has a bit to prove at the moment.

Form & Verdict
Six-time turf winner (7f/1m), who returned to form when going close behind dual subsequent winner Queen Of Burgundy at Chester (7.6f, good) four weeks ago; finished well in that race and she's an interesting contender off the same mark on this step back up in trip.

Form & Verdict
Off the mark when making all in Lingfield novice (7f, AW) in June but she couldn't make a serious impact on her handicap debut here (7f, good to firm) last month; still lightly raced and looks worth another try at this trip but she needs to find more progress.
