J: Brandon Wilkie

Won at Musselburgh (5f, good) last month on second start and has won nurseries there (5f, good) and at Leicester (5f, soft) on her next two outings; goes up in grade here but she did it cosily under Brandon Wilkie last time and could have more left in the tank for her top northern trainer.

Form & Verdict
Big improvement when a last-gasp winner at Yarmouth (5f, good to firm) in June but she was only third of six on her nursery debut at Windsor (5f, good) last month; kept battling in that race but she needs to find more progress to make a big impact here.

J: Hector Crouch

12-1 winner of a Yarmouth novice (5f, good to firm) last June but she's not really gone on from that and was a long way below form on stable debut at Bath; that last run was in the mud after an absence but she's starting to look exposed and others are preferred.

J: Jay Mackay

T: Michael Bell

Reportedly improved for the faster ground when winning a 5f novice at Yarmouth last summer (trained by William Jarvis); ran well for second in a soft-ground nursery at Leicester in August and finished lame when disappointing the following month; new yard might coax more out of her this season but such progress is a requirement.

OR: 68

Form & Verdict
Half-sister to several winners but she hasn't looked straightforward in maiden/novice events; showed clear promise when runner-up at York (5f, good to firm) but she missed the break when a well-held fourth at Catterick (5f, good; hood added) last time; still unexposed and now switches to a nursery but she needs to step up again after that last run; headgear removed.

J: Dougie Costello

Justified favouritism at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) recently and remains well treated back up just 2lb; however, her last four wins have come at the same venue and she has something to prove on her first run here.

Often leads and her last three wins have been over C&D, including in this race last year; finished down the field in last four runs but this is a drop back in grade and she's now 7lb lower than for her last success; one to keep an eye on.

Often leads; ran in a Listed race in May but underwhelming handicap efforts since on Newmarket's July course and she usually runs that track well; needs a revival and she's unraced here.

Form & Verdict
Well-held seventh in her first two runs and was a tailed-off last of nine on her stable debut at Newmarket (7f, good) last month; took a strong hold last time and now drops back in trip but she needs a transformation on her nursery debut.

Placed in 6f Lingfield handicap for Victor Dartnall in April and gave another good account on turf a fortnight later; makes stable debut after three-month break but has a big role to play if fully tuned up.

Form & Verdict
Remote eighth in the last two of her three runs but she showed ability on soft ground at Newbury (5f) on her debut in April; has been gelded and he looks a possible improver now back on slow ground on his nursery debut; yard won this with a well-backed runner last year.
