Form & Verdict
The only one of these without a success over C&D, her three wins coming on the Chelmsford Polytrack (6f/7f) for James Tate; ran well when third of ten on stable debut at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) in September, but twice held subsequently; needs to bounce back now returned to the AW.

Won three times at Chelmsford when trained by James Tate; the return to AW has prompted further progress for her new stable and having seen off Aramis Grey at Wolverhampton she ran on well to score at Newcastle on New Year's Day; latest 3lb rise unlikely to prove beyond her.

Up just 2lb for half-length win at Wolverhampton (6f) four weeks ago; now 4-11 on AW and can remain competitive provided she's as effective back up in trip; mixed record (1547) over 7f.

Form & Verdict
8-34 on the AW and has looked better than ever lately, as when beaten less than a length into third of 12 in a warm handicap at Kempton (6f, Polytrack) last month; record over C&D reads 312413 and she drops into a Class 3 for the first time since winning at Kempton more than a year ago; much respected.

Her losing run stands at 26 but that doesn't do her justice as she's an admirable mare who has run numerous good races since that latest success; good third against male opposition at Newcastle four weeks ago; should get a good pace to aim at and more prize money would seem likely.

Form & Verdict
Dual course winner (5f/6f) who ended a 24-race losing run at Chelmsford (6f, Polytrack) last month; 2lb rise still leaves her favourably treated on previous form and not dismissed lightly for last year's winning stable.

Last two wins at 6f but has been shaping as if this return to 5f will suit; defied higher marks twice under Pat Cosgrave in the summer of 2022 and holds major claims on that form.

Won a big race over C&D in 2022 off 6lb higher; only 1lb higher than for her game success at Chelmsford in November but she'll need to be somewhere near her best on this return from five months off.

Form & Verdict
3-4 on the AW and 2-2 over C&D, her latest win coming here in October; the form of that race hasn't worked out and she is 4lb higher, but she remains open to further improvement; likely to give it her best shot back at this venue.

Impressive over C&D on her handicap debut in May; not so good on turf on her next two starts and she gave up her unbeaten record on AW when a weak finisher at Newcastle four weeks ago; back against her own sex today but the last run does leave her with something to prove.
