Record of 6-14 on AW and her latest win was at Wolverhampton (5f) last month; only 2lb higher here but she's not easy to predict and was held in small field at Kempton (6f) last time; needs to step up again after that and almost all of her runs have been at sprint trips.

J: Joe Leavy

T: Richard Hannon

Three-time AW winner who got off the mark on turf at the 14th attempt, at Brighton (5.2f, good to firm) on Monday; also effective on good to soft; she won that four-runner handicap in fine style and is entitled to respect under a 5lb penalty, but today's company is more demanding.

Triple AW winner who is 0-13 on turf but she's run respectably at Lingfield (5f, good to firm) and Nottingham (5f, good) in her last two runs; returns after another short break but she's generally reliable and shouldn't be far away.

Seems equally effective over 5f and 6f; runner-up in eight of his last 11 starts but his spark was missing at Lingfield (5f, Polytrack) last time and that took his overall record to 1-26; others preferred.

Just one win to his name and he's finished second on 12 occasions, including the last twice (no match for Master Of My Fate over C&D two weeks ago); should run his race but others appeal more for win purposes.

Dual C&D winner who narrowly ended an 18-race losing run at Wolverhampton (5f, Tapeta) ten days ago; 4lb penalty puts him on his previous winning mark, but he may find this company a shade warm (all ten wins in Class 5/6 company).

Three good runs since joining this stable, doing well to sustain a fast gallop when winning at Newbury in August (5f, good to firm); solid third behind Woolhampton here four weeks ago (5f, soft; best of the prominent racers) and should make a bold bid, even with other pace influences to contend with.
