Still seeking her first win after 16 starts but she has threatened, including over C&D, and she ran well over 7f here 11 days ago given she didn't settle; Simon Walker booked and she's one to take seriously.

Steadily on the downgrade now but has been placed in two handicaps here this season (1m/7f) and also ran well in a recent classified race here (7f); suited by fast ground and probably worth another crack at 1m2f; more appealing than some of these.

Five-time AW winner who made his belated breakthrough on turf when scoring on recent stable debut at Redcar (6f); up 5lb but he was as good as ever last time and has claims if he can back that up; last run was on good to firm but he's also effective on good to soft.

Relatively unexposed as a sprinter and he followed a near-miss at Wolverhampton last month with a hard-fought success from the fast-finishing Port Noir back there two weeks ago; 2lb rise manageable and he's more appealing than many.
