Form & Verdict
Consistent (runner-up on four occasions; 5f-6f) in seeking the breakthrough win; didn't have a fair crack at things but was doing solid late work at Hamilton (6f, good to soft) last time, so should be thereabouts; Pippa Brown's 5lb claim is handy from a handicapping perspective.

Looks competitively weighted, having won off this mark at Ripon in July; however, form has dipped since August and failed to beat a rival last time; hard to support with confidence.

Both wins at 5f, the latest here in July off 1lb lower; saddle slipped last time so that run can be ignored but her previous course flop also needs excusing; down in class but she has more to prove back at 6f.

Form & Verdict
No win since May 2022 (Musselburgh), but has posted some solid efforts this year, most notably when cut down late after pulling hard over C&D (good) in August; soft ground suits, so could still have a positive role to play from this 2lb higher mark.

Form & Verdict
Downhill trajectory since winning at Ayr (5f Class 5, good; from a 9lb higher mark) in September 2022; although she wasn't beaten all that far at Nottingham (fourth) in August, she has failed to build on that since and the prospect of soft ground is a legitimate concern.

Equally effective over 6f-7f, even though both career wins have come over today's 5f trip (Class 6); lost his way after finishing in the frame in a selling handicap at Hamilton in July, but his latest Ayr effort (ninth of 20; first-time visor) was more encouraging; 2lb above last winning mark.

Five-time AW winner who made his belated breakthrough on turf when scoring on recent stable debut at Redcar (6f); up 5lb but he was as good as ever last time and has claims if he can back that up; last run was on good to firm but he's also effective on good to soft.

Form & Verdict
Five career wins, all coming at either Brighton or Yarmouth (5.5f-6f); somewhat underwhelming since scoring at Yarmouth (6f, Class 6, good; from a 4lb lower mark) in August but, as this isn't a particularly competitive event, shouldn't be totally dismissed.

Patchy profile, but she's proficient over C&D (on soft) and remains on a competitive mark - just 2lb higher than when successful at Beverley (5f, soft) in August; down the field (seventh) in this race last year, but that's neither here nor there in the grand scheme; a possible.
