All six of her wins came on turf, the last three over 1m6f; she hasn't won since September 2023, however, and was beaten 22l over C&D (good) on her reappearance in May; will need to have derived plenty of benefit from that.

Regular slow-starter on AW but has broken better and made all in two races (1m6f/11.5f) since returned to turf, looking better than ever; scored comfortably at Bath last week and commands respect under a penalty (future mark 1lb higher).

Scored at Bath in May and was one of two to pull clear of the others when close second of four off today's mark at Nottingham (also 1m6f, good to firm) last month; didn't fire on latest outing but this drop back in trip won't be a problem if he's back on song.

5-42, his last three wins close to home on the July Course at Newmarket (2m); third to Regally Blonde in this last year and the handicapper is beginning to cut him some slack (back on last winning mark); vulnerable to younger rivals?

10yo whose last three wins came in this race (2022, 2023 and 2025) and it's now named after him; did it in good style from the back last year (good to firm) and is now 3lb higher; made a satisfactory return to action at Yarmouth last month and the chief concern today is probably whether there will be enough pace in the race for his stamina to kick in sufficiently.

Inconsistent 22-race maiden but he has form over C&D and was runner-up over 1m6f here (soft) on his penultimate run; has claims if he can get back near that level and he seems versatile ground-wise.
