Form & Verdict
Prolific winner on turf and the AW; doesn't come here in bad form at all (not beaten far into ninth last time) but she's exposed and Oliver Searle has been utilising his claim all year.

Racked up 13 wins in a superb career; unable to repeat last year's Ascot win in the same race this month but she'd been in good form for Oliver Searle previously and some of her best turf efforts have come over C&D, including a win; weighted to be involved.

Form & Verdict
Five-time winner who has been threatening win number six on a number of her recent starts; did well to finish third at Lingfield (7f; Crystal Casque behind) on her penultimate run but had no excuses when again coming up short back there over 1m 11 days ago (travelled well but found little); beginning to frustrate.

2-5 when trained in France but found the handicapper firmly in command in the first half of 2023; she's been much more competitive in recent starts though and returning to 1m will suit; handles slow ground; contender, especially if avoiding the late hanging which has blighted recent runs.

Form & Verdict
Won her first two starts in blinkers (both nurseries at about 6f on soft) last season in Ireland, but she shot up the weights and was found wanting the final time in the valuable Birdcatcher Nursery at Naas; remains in the same ownership despite leaving Johnny Murtagh but this mark might be challenging.

Off the mark on her eighth attempt but first for this yard when edging home over 7f at Wolverhampton (2lb lower); didn't fail through a lack of stamina when raised to 1m at Chelmsford but should be thereabouts if handling the ground (0-3 on grass; good/good to firm).

She's on a competitive mark on last year's best form and kicked off this campaign with an encouraging run at Newmarket, but she flopped at York in June last time (1m2f, good to soft; upset in stalls) and it's hard to be overly confident on the back of that.

Seen mostly at 1m, over which she was a below-form eighth of 23 in Royal Ascot handicap on latest outing; has had only one crack at 1m2f even, when third of six in Listed race at Nottingham (good to firm) in April and that was one of her best efforts, 1l behind Karmology; mixed signals on pedigree for 1m4f, with stamina on the dam's side; same connections were seventh and first in last two renewals of this race with Scenic.

Verdict

The Ed Walker-trained ROSE PRICK (nap) had a productive first season despite winning only once and she’s dangerous off this mark. Palm Lily proved a bit disappointing after looking so good on her debut but there’s scope for improvement as a 3yo, especially if settling better. Granary Queen always finishes on the scene but she’s starting to frustrate.[Alistair Jones]
