Form & Verdict
6f AW winner (Tapeta) one year ago off a 5lb higher mark; mixed bag this year but latest third at Wolverhampton (visored first time, retained) wasn't without hope; can get it wrong at the start which won't be advantageous around here.

Form & Verdict
Two wins over the winter, one of them over C&D; she has slipped down the weights and last month's return to action was encouraging; Daniel Muscutt replaces an apprentice and she's another to consider in an open race.

Form & Verdict
Seemingly took a big step forward when making a successful handicap debut at Yarmouth 24 days ago (6f, good) but that form is questionable given she was held up on an afternoon when there was a notable headwind; still has some potential but she'll need to improve again to follow up.
