Form & Verdict
Four-time turf winner who is now 1lb lower than for her win at Chester (10.3f, good) last September but she's 0-10 since; ran well to finish third at Hamilton (1m1f, soft) last time but this is a step back up in grade and others look stronger.

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.

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
Added to her 7f Wolverhampton novice win last September when landing a 1m Ripon handicap (good) last month; was allowed to dictate in that five-runner race but she battled well to come out on top and could make another bold off 3lb higher here.

Her three handicap wins have all come from the front, including twice round here; back in form last Tuesday (9.7f; again didn't lead) but there's not much wiggle room off this mark and an easy 1m on quicker ground is a bare minimum now.

Form & Verdict
Runaway winner over 6f at Pontefract last summer and has belatedly built on that promise with her runner-up efforts in 7f handicaps in last two starts; probably needs to step up again but she kept on well in a big field at York last time and is respected on this return to 1m.

Form & Verdict
Showed plenty of promise on AW in her first two juvenile runs before forging clear on the step up 8.6f at Wolverhampton (Tapeta) last October; mixed messages about the strength of that form but this unexposed filly has a progressive profile and she's an interesting contender on her handicap/seasonal debut.

Form & Verdict
Likeable filly who is a dual winner this season and has rallied for a creditable fourth over 7f at Newmarket and York in her last two runs; looks worth another try at this trip but she probably needs to resume her progress to defy this mark; has won on good to firm and good to soft.

Dual 1m winner (soft/good to soft) but she has a patchy profile and was well below form at Newbury in April in her final run for Richard Hannon; changed hands for 40,000gns but she has something to prove for new yard and ideally wants rain to arrive.
