21-runner maiden but runner-up seven times on AW; steps up in trip but percentage call is that she is likely to find at least one too good.

Form & Verdict
3-3 at this track, at 1m4f and 1m5f; he has not been at his best since March but it's possible that a return to this track and a step up in trip may spark a revival.

Well backed when winning here on the AW over 1m4f in December but never featured when beating only one rival home 19 days ago; 0-9 on turf and others are preferred.

Well backed when winning over C&D in December off a 2lb lower mark (ridden by Myla Coppins); the odd solid effort since and he can't be ruled out.

Not the most consistent, but has won six times on the AW including five over 1m4f/1m5f at Lingfield; has run well here, but stall 13 isn't ideal even over this trip.

Form & Verdict
Six-race maiden who was a market springer when second on his stable debut at Southwell (1m6f, AW) last Tuesday; first-time visor replaces cheekpieces on this step up in trip and he looks one of the better options.

Capable on her day as she showed when beaten a neck (clear of the third) at Wolverhampton (1m6f, Tapeta) on her penultimate start; not the most consistent, though, and has run poorly in both starts over C&D; apprentice-ridden for last 11 starts but Dylan Hogan on board today.

Reasonably consistent mare who is a four-time AW scorer; clear second at Wolverhampton (1m6f) most recently; stays 2m; may remain competitive back up just 2lb.
