Most wins have come in the second half of the year and always after a recent outing; returns from four months off and she might need a bit more help from the handicapper.

Six-time turf winner who is 1-15 on AW, but that win was over C&D in November and she was placed here (6f) three weeks ago; has wide draw this time but she's tactically versatile and could go well again on this drop back in grade.

Has a patchy record but she won at Windsor (6f, good) in July and was a close third over C&D (heavy) ten days ago; 1lb lower than for that last run and has claims if she can back that up.

Form & Verdict
Ten-race maiden with a patchy overall record; fair fourth behind Lahina Bay here in June and now 7lb lower; good apprentice booked and he's been gelded since his latest start; carries risk but a bigger effort wouldn't be a bolt from the blue.

Form & Verdict
Promise in three maiden runs, finishing his race off strongly when a head second of eight at Bath last time (ran the fastest sectional for each of the last three furlongs); moves into handicaps with untapped potential but worth bearing in mind that the horse he failed to peg back last time was winning for the first time at the 41st attempt.
