Best known for her Hamilton exploits (two 6f wins in June, eight in all) but she does have form here, and 7f in the mud at Carlisle last time possibly stretched her stamina; tough, game and impossible to rule out.

T: Tristan Davidson

Best known for her Hamilton exploits, including two wins this month (6f, good), but she does have a 6f course win on her record; well in under a 4lb penalty and clearly thriving but she is 0-9 over 7f and any further deterioration of the ground would perhaps place too much emphasis on stamina.

This C&D brings out the best in her and she gained course win number seven when narrowly repelling Havana Rum last week; 4lb worse off with her old rival but still highly likely to be in thick of it.

1-18 strike-rate and down the field at York last Saturday (6f, good; reportedly never travelling); however, prior to that she was a close third on reappearance at Haydock (7f, good to soft) and a good case can be made on that form; effective on good to soft; could bounce back with big run.

Progressive daughter of Adaay who comfortably bagged her second win of 2024 in 6f Goodwood handicap last month, despite hanging right last 1f; up 4lb but this strong-travelling sort still holds leading claims.

Both of her wins have been at this track, the latest on her second start for Jim Goldie over C&D off 8lb lower in May (good to firm); below her best at York (6f, good to firm) 27 days ago but she's versatile in regards to ground and now drops back down in grade.

Good start for Jim Goldie when second of eight at Doncaster in April; came from off the pace to win at Carlisle last month (6f, good to firm) but the handicapper took a dim view of that success and she could only manage fourth at Haydock a fortnight ago (7f); has more races in her but perhaps not this one.
