Form & Verdict
Couldn't cope with a Class 3 event here at the Glorious meeting but she'd been running well at a lower level beforehand; can front-run but it isn't a requirement; likely to go well back down in grade.

5f winner here; she was involved in tight finishes at Bath (extended 5f; good to soft and heavy) last October and over 5f here in May but more often than not she tends to run out of steam over this trip.

Form & Verdict
Progressive in handicaps last season, winning at Bath (easily) and Wolverhampton; not at her best in two runs this season but her yard is now finding top form after a quiet year and a wind operation since last time could help too; one to consider.

Running well enough without being quite at her best this summer; latest close second at Yarmouth was in a Class 6 and she's been nudged up 1lb; more minor money perhaps her best hope today.

Two easy front-running wins last month (6f, soft and 5f, good to firm); last two efforts have suggested the handicapper may have caught up though and an easy lead seems unlikely in this field.

J: Chloe Lyons

T: Stuart Williams

He'd been headed when badly hampered at Newbury recently (not recover) but was without his usual visor, in which he was running really well in defeat previously under Chloe Lyons at up to 5.2f; he should be fine at this trip; the visor returns and he could bounce back with a big run.
