String of good efforts to her name this year, winning at Carlisle in June off 6lb lower; should be able to lead in this field and not dismissed lightly.

Princess Karine

9st 7lb

J: Harrison Shaw

T: Bryan Smart

Ran out an easy winner in a small-field soft-ground handicap at Pontefract last spring but the handicapper took umbrage and she's found it tough going since; may have needed January's return to action but she still carries risk despite her much-reduced mark.

Form & Verdict
Two C&D wins this summer on good ground; she's come up short in Class 2 company the last twice but holds solid claims back down in class; rain won't hurt.

Record of 0-9 this season but she's much better off with Jannas Journey on C&D running four starts ago; successful off higher marks in this race for the last two years; very attractively weighted and warrants respect.

J: Amie Waugh

Soft-ground winner who is below her last winning mark and ran some pretty good races in defeat last month; however, she made it 0-8 for the year when finishing last here (7f, soft) last week and has to bounce back.

In reasonable form, having made the frame in last three starts, latest over C&D when one place behind Quest For Fun; 2lb below last winning mark; enters the reckoning.

Form & Verdict
Got up late to beat Princess Karine at Carlisle in May (5f, good to firm) and she's 1lb lower today; mixed bag since then and not sure this small-field scenario over a fast 5f will see him to best effect.

Multiple AW and turf winner from 5f-7f; back on his last winning turf mark from Ayr 13 months ago (has twice won on AW since); below par latest but not ruled out if able to bounce back.

Won twice (6f/7f) in February and he was a good second to a thriving rival over C&D in his bid for a hat-trick; beaten off a lower mark twice since and more minor money perhaps his best hope.

Dual course winner last month who's continued in form since, faring best of those held up when not far behind Bomb Squad over C&D on Friday; one of the likelier winners.

Form & Verdict
He's dropped down the weights this year while leaving the impression that all his ability is intact; whether he'll get a strong enough pace to aim at in this field a moot point.
