J: Alistair Rawlinson

Both her wins for Ed Walker came over 6f at Leicester on ground slower than good, the second off this mark last October; two runs for current stable have come over 6f here, not doing enough on either occasion to make her of significant interest today.

On a losing run but now 10lb lower than her latest win at Hamilton last August (6f, good to soft) and recent signs have been more hopeful, having made a race of it with Ray Vonn at Nottingham last week (6f, heavy); weights turnaround favours her and she should be competitive.

Had some near-misses on turf this year and confirmed his strong-finishing promise at Newmarket two starts ago when off the mark at Nottingham last week (6f, heavy; first run on slower than good); likely to go well under penalty for yard in tremendous form, with Bradley Furniss claiming 7lb.

Well handicapped on his best form and is effective in the mud but he's still maiden after 14 starts and was disappointing at Lingfield (7f, good) in August; has something to prove again after a break and others are more convincing; tongue-tie back on.

Form & Verdict
Can lead; won her maiden over 7f but weakened back at that trip on Lingfield AW last time and better judged on earlier 6f form on turf, including over C&D, on good to firm and good; no standout off current mark but shouldn't be far away.

Form & Verdict
Often leads; tough assignments in 2022 after winning 6f Newbury novice for Richard Hannon but had dropped a long way in the weights since yard debut in May and never relinquished her lead at Ripon last month (6f, good); this could be problematic with other front-runners to consider.

Has generally struggled since her Ripon win (6f, good) last September but she showed signs of a revival when third there (5f, good) two weeks ago; has claims if she can build on that but she's drawn out wide here and could have competition for the lead.

C&D winner who also finished third in this last year; has been in good nick since the visor went on, winning a classified at Southwell and Newcastle (February/March) and placed in three handicaps (also 5f, AW) subsequently; can take a grip so today's likely good pace will suit and he gets on well with Conor Whiteley; player.
