Form & Verdict
Recorded her sixth win when coming from off the pace to cash in on reduced mark at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW) last Wednesday; has a penalty back on turf but in-form claimer is booked and this 4yo has won on fast ground over C&D in the past; key player.

Completed a double over C&D (good to firm) in April but she's finished out the back at Kempton and York since; now drops back in grade but has bit to prove again and she's still 3lb higher than for last success; visor is removed and blinkers return.

Cashed in on a reduced mark at Lingfield (1m4f, Polytrack) last month before following up under a penalty at Windsor five days later; up another 4lb but she overcame trouble for that brave success last time and still looks feasibly treated; highly respected in hat-trick bid.

Form & Verdict
Won on Tapeta (1m4f) and turf (1m2f) in the first half of last year; mixed results since last success but she went close on Wolverhampton reappearance last month and didn't get the best of runs when a fair fifth at Kempton last time; probably doesn't have much margin for error off this mark but she's in the mix back on turf.

On reduced mark and is versatile ground-wise but her last win was in May 2023 and she generally struggled last year; still has stamina to prove at this trip and she looks opposable back from 189 days off; cheekpieces replace blinkers.

Took her Chepstow record to 2-4 when seeing off five rivals over 1m2f last July but her form dipped at the end of the year; races over short of 1m for the first time in five years on her reappearance and a watching brief is the call despite her good record here.

Boasts a good record here (1m2f winner last month off 4lb lower) and will be happier back down in class having hung right at Windsor last time; this trip's a bare minimum now, unless the ground eases (seems unlikely), but the big field will help.

Four-time winner, with first three at Yarmouth (1m-1m2f) and latest at Kempton (1m4f) in November; never involved back at Yarmouth on recent return but she may have needed that run and conditions should be fine on this return to turf; dangerous if she can get back near best.
