Good record on AW and she's only 1lb higher than when winning over C&D in January; latest 7f run not the one to judge her on and Hector Crouch a notable booking.

The winner of ten of her 39 starts, notably when scampering clear of ten rivals in a Class 3 fillies' handicap at Newmarket three weeks ago; this represents a much stiffer assignment.

Has struggled with the handicapper after completing an AW double in the first part of 2024; more realistically treated now and well drawn so he can't be ruled out.

J: Zac Lloyd

Has done most of his racing on AW (4-20) but seems at least as effective on turf and he went close at Chepstow three weeks ago; all wins over 5f but he tends to finish strongly and should be just as good at 6f; may not be fully exposed and the booking of young Aussie star Zac Lloyd catches the eye.

Both wins have come at Wolverhampton, the latest over C&D last July (beat Reigning Profit) off a 3lb higher mark; yet to fire in two 6f runs for his new stable but Billy Loughnane takes over today and a revival could be imminent back at 5f.

Needs things to fall just right for him but he is on a lowly mark and some of this summer's form gives him leading claims; wouldn't judge him too harshly on latest Leicester run and he holds each-way claims again.
