Not at the top of her game at Hamilton (5f, good) a fortnight ago but before that she was an encouraging fourth on her comeback at Ayr (5f, good to firm); third in this last year and might not be far away if bouncing back.

Has gained all wins in Scotland, including over C&D; respectable fourth at Ayr on seasonal debut; it's still two years since she scored away from Musselburgh, however.

Not as good as he was but retains some ability and Monday's third at Thirsk was respectable; return to 5f a plus; not discounted.

Just 3-48, but his second of eight at Catterick (5f, soft) on his penultimate start shows that he remains capable of a good effort; frame claims if the ground remains testing despite being just out of the weights and drawn low.

3-47 career; reeled in late over C&D (good to soft) last September, and arrives off the back of a respectable effort at Catterick (5f, soft; runner-up, with a couple of these behind); there are reasons to be optimistic, so he could feasibly have a say.

Modest overall strike-rate and losing run goes back two years; recent form hadn't been too encouraging but she did keep on at one pace when third of six over 5f here yesterday.

Form & Verdict
Didn't get a clear run when second at Musselburgh last weekend and showed he was at the top of his game with an emphatic defeat of 19 rivals at Ayr on Thursday; hard to beat if anywhere near that level in this lower grade, even with his penalty.

Won a 20-runner handicap off 5lb higher at Ayr (5f, good to soft) last September but he's not matched that since including on Tapeta in his last seven starts; has some questions to answer and all of his wins have been at 5f.

Form & Verdict
Three of his five wins have come at this track on slow ground; disappointing in the last 12 months but there have been more promising signs over 6f on AW the last twice and if he is to win again, it's likely to be under these conditions.
