0-15 and unproven at the trip, and she's been very slowly away on all three starts for this yard; however, she did well to finish fourth in a Catterick classified (7f, good to soft) last month and is not ruled out.

Three wins this year (two on soft), the latest when edging out Astronomica at Nottingham in June; now needs to bounce back from quieter runs, latterly in the Bath race dominated by two of today's rivals.

Three wins this year including two over C&D (soft) in the spring; fast ground was against her at Doncaster last time and has been off for 68 days since, but she has won fresh; still on a career-high mark, but the return to a soft surface would be a plus.

Kicked off campaign with two wins at Bath (1m, soft) before a good second there (1m, good), and she returned to winning ways at Nottingham (1m, good to soft); it's unlikely she's going to be on slow ground today, which dents confidence somewhat, but this thriving mare is still respected.

C&D winner just under a year ago and comes into this on a hat-trick after two wins at Southwell (1m, Tapeta), the latest a narrow success under Andrea Pinna 11 days ago; up another 2lb and although his wide draw isn't ideal, he has to be respected in his current mood.
