Form & Verdict
Looked exposed after a busy 2yo campaign but something has clicked this year and she has won four of her last five starts (all 6f, variety of underfoot conditions); latest Chester success a bit more comfortable than the winning margin but she would be no certainty to confirm placings with Distinguished Lady this time.

Form & Verdict
Front-runner who has made giant strides through the handicapping ranks in the last two seasons, winning seven times; 4lb higher than when finishing third in this race 12 months ago (strong form) but she had had a couple of runs beforehand whereas now she returns from a nine-month layoff; can win more races but this might not be her day.

Form & Verdict
Won two minor handicaps last summer before her form really took off, starting with a good second in a 5f handicap here at the Ebor meeting; ended 2022 with two placed efforts in Listed company; should have more to come this year and she's one to take seriously.

Ended 4yo turf season with two very good runs, winning an Ayr Listed race (good to soft) and close up in a Group 3 at Ascot (6f, good); not obviously bet-worthy on this year's form but it's possible she'll sing a different tune for the first-time tongue-tie.

Well beaten at 40-1 in this race last year but she went on to win a C&D handicap last July and a Pontefract event in September (6f, good); ran right up to her best when second at Ripon on last month's return to action; each-way claims.

Form & Verdict
Had wind surgery after her third start and she showed the benefit when running away with a 6f novice at Chelmsford in October (tongue tied for the first time); shaped well behind Radio Goo Goo at Chester last month, coming very wide in the straight and from a long way back; capable of further progress.

Landed her sixth win on turf when making all at Nottingham (6f, good) in May for today's rider Oliver Searle off 1lb higher mark; beaten five times since, mostly below form, and steps back up to 7f for the first time since August 2022; vulnerable to less exposed rivals.

Form & Verdict
BHA-rated just 68 at this point 12 months ago, but she won six times in the second half of 2022 and carried on the good work with an AW win at Kempton in April (6f); that effort backed up by the clock and she shouldn't be underestimated; stable also runs Radio Goo Goo.
