Three 7f wins at this track but has also won at 1m; resumed winning ways in a classified at Yarmouth (1m, good to firm) ten days ago but back up 5lb and will find it tougher back in a handicap.

Dual winner here (including C&D) last summer; second over C&D on two of her last three starts, latterly in a handicap 17 days ago; winner has gone in again, so she's well in the mix dropped back into classified company.

Dual course winner on fast ground last summer (7f/6f); not quite at best when third of six here (6f, firm) a fortnight ago but that certainly wasn't a bad run and she remains on a good mark; good chance.

Not as consistent in recent times but rarely fails to give her running round here; little room for manoeuvre off this mark but a good test back down in trip will be fine and she holds each-way claims.

Form & Verdict
Came good at 25th attempt, with clearcut success at Lingfield (7f, AW) in January; not seen since lesser effort there in February (bled from the nose) but today's return to fast turf won't be a problem and her current mark is workable if she's fully tuned up.

Off the mark at the 25th attempt over C&D in January and added another win at Bath (1m, good) in July; twice held since, but her latest effort here (1m) can be excused as she blew the start; drawn widest but still shortlisted.

Form & Verdict
Last of 13 after racing too freely in first-time blinkers (now removed) at Bath (5.7f, good) last month and needs to put that run behind him but was fourth in two C&D handicaps beforehand and won't be far away if back at that level.

Form & Verdict
Has done most of his winning in AW sprints but this trip-and-surface combination will also suit; needs to up his game after some below-par recent efforts but a failed experiment over 1m2f here on Friday should not be held against him; swaps hood for refitted visor today.

Form & Verdict
A maiden after ten runs but bumped into a revitalised opponent when second over C&D (good; first-time cheekpieces) in September and made quite encouraging reappearance over 1m here three weeks ago; drops back in trip; contender if that recent outing did him good.
