Form & Verdict
Dam stayed well on the Flat and over jumps and this one had no trouble with the step up to 1m4f when winning with something in hand under a 7lb claimer at Catterick (good to firm) recently; a likely improver now handicapping for yard that's having a good year.

Fair Flat racer who was placed in Listed races at Wetherby (2m, good) and Newbury (2m, soft) on her first two hurdling starts; below that form in another Listed race in January but still very much the one to beat here.

Three-time Flat winner who has been placed in Listed races on her two hurdle starts, most recently runner-up to Highland Crystal at Newbury (2m, soft) when beaten just under 7l; 5lb better off with the winner today and can give another good account, but improvement is needed if she's to win this.

J: Tristan Durrell

Completed a hat-trick at about 1m4f earlier this year for Michael Bell, whom she left after finishing last in a 1m6f handicap in August; of useful ability and has joined a top yard for hurdling career; not entirely dismissed as a 3yo filly receiving weight all round.

Form & Verdict
Beat subsequent triple winner when improving to win on handicap debut at Southwell (AW, 1m3f) in October; not gone on from that, hooded two starts ago and tongue tied latest and needs a break since to have restored her.

J: Saffie Osborne

Smooth success at Nottingham (1m2f, good) on her reappearance in April; four solid efforts have followed, most recently a close second at Windsor 18 days ago when she was only picked off late; should remain competitive off an unchanged mark.

Looked as good as ever when scoring in good style on seasonal debut at Nottingham (1m2f, good) in April but subsequent efforts, though respectable, suggest she's a shade vulnerable off her current mark.

Creditable third in both starts since making a successful reappearance; remains in form but is getting no respite from the assessor, as another 1lb rise reflects; has done all her winning off marks in the 60s.

6 yo Filly

OR: 57

Form & Verdict
Can lead; C&D winner on good to firm; needed her reappearance but she came clear with the short-priced favourite at Brighton (1m2f) 12 days ago; unfortunate that she's gone back up 4lb but should still go well for yard that has a good strike-rate with older horses this year.

Six visits to Epsom have seen her placed four times, including when second in this race in 2024; narrowly got the better of one of just two rivals when winning at Windsor (11.5f, good to firm) in May and it was a solid fourth in similar event back there a fortnight ago; will probably give her running but more of an each-way prospect.

Form & Verdict
Showed promise on her second 2yo start, over about 7f at Beverley, but she hasn't achieved much in handicaps over 1m2f and 1m this year; enough to prove going the other way in trip.

Dual Kempton winner who was below-par there on Wednesday evening; victories came for headgear coming off, then for going back on, so perhaps the removal will result in a better effort, but she's some way down the pecking order.
