Form & Verdict
Front-runner; having a superb season with four wins, the first three over sprint trips and the latest over C&D; all were on good or firmer and she was well beaten all four runs on softer than good, albeit in 2020 and 2021; up another 4lb but ground conditions are the chief concern.

J: Ben Ffrench Davis

Gained three of her eight wins over this C&D and has slipped to a good mark, but ended last season on a low note and last month's reappearance run was also disappointing; needs to get back in the groove.

9yo who has been absent since two below-par runs last summer; however, this course winner is 4lb lower than when a close third at Kempton (1m, AW) on her reappearance last May and is not discounted on her return.

J: William Carson

T: Malcolm Saunders

Eight-time winner who is versatile ground-wise and has form figures of 1126224 at Epsom; mixed record in her four runs this season but was runner-up behind a resurgent rival at Chepstow (7f) on her penultimate run; usually races prominently and has possibilities back at this track.

Form & Verdict
Has form figures of 1121 since wearing blinkers, with the wins over 1m on Lingfield AW and 7f on good to firm at Chepstow (by 7l, best effort) and Doncaster; last three runs were under Connor Planas; raised another 7lb and unraced on softer than good, but she's having a great summer.

Has thrived in these blinkers, making it four wins in the headgear when scoring at Newmarket (7f, good) in August, and she's been a very solid second the next twice (over this C&D last time); strong claims.

Has taken off in recent weeks, making it four wins in a row (the last three under Tommie Jakes) when fending off another in-form filly (pair clear) at Southwell (1m) 11 days ago; steps up in grade and trip here but further progress can't be discounted.

Took a while to get off the mark but now on a hat-trick after wins at Wolverhampton (extended 1m) and Lingfield (7f; Sixties Chic third) last month; the latter success came under today's rider Tommie Jakes; another good runs is on the cards.

Form & Verdict
Ran respectably on soft on reappearance and when she tried 7.6f at Chester on penultimate outing; appeared to do too much too soon up front on latest outing; hood (absent last three starts) returns; best chance if having soft-ground form proves key.

6f novice winner for Andrew Balding and went on to be competitive in handicaps, as was also the case at Windsor on her penultimate start (5f, good to firm; found some trouble in running); not sure what happened when last out at Newbury but she's respected.

Fair form in some warm 6f handicaps for Andrew Balding last year; yet to be involved in two runs for new yard but she's on a good mark and her latest finishing effort at Windsor (5f, good to firm) was promising as she was switched twice and came home nicely; contender back at 6f.
