Two of three wins have been over C&D including conditions event last month when beating Harmony Rose a shade snugly; out of depth in Group 2 on latest but has to be respected back down in class; soft ground wouldn't be ideal.

Won twice over the minimum at Tipperary last season; however, needs to prove she's as effective at this trip and might need this on yard debut returning from 210 days off; fitted with first-time tongue-tie.

Form & Verdict
Not a great strike rate but close second to Lady Tilbury over C&D last month gives her definite claims; 8lb better off with that rival here and has winning form on soft ground so big player.

Speedy filly whose 27 career outings have all been over 5f; first stab at 6f here so obviously has stamina questions to answer and others make more compelling cases.

Form & Verdict
Dual C&D winner including at Listed level in 2021; some good runs this summer, winning at Fairyhouse and touched off in Rockingham Handicap at the Curragh; trip too far latest two runs so more expected back down in trip (handles soft).

Form & Verdict
Very useful, progressive 2yo form last year, notably when touched off by subsequent Listed winner at Navan before winning Dundalk maiden and better form at latter venue final start when third (Lady Tilbury fourth) in Listed contest; belated seasonal reappearance suggests things haven't been straightforward and tough enough task at the weights.
