9st 4lb

J: Luke Catton

T: Steph Hollinshead

Won a division of this race 12 months ago; added a Carlisle handicap (7f, soft) in June and although she hasn't been quite so good twice since, she makes more appeal than many.

J: Daniel Tudhope

T: Steph Hollinshead

Two wins since cheekpieces were added last autumn and her last success was at Carlisle (7f, soft) in June; didn't shine at Doncaster (good to firm) last time but that was over 1m and she still looks on a workable mark; dangerous back in trip.

J: David Egan

T: Steph Hollinshead

Low-mileage 5yo who has form figures of 12531 since wearing cheekpieces, most recently seeing off nine rivals at Carlisle (7f) in June; has a likeable profile for this grade but the wins have been achieved on good to soft/soft and she needs to prove she's as effective on today's likely much faster ground.

It's now 15 runs since his last victory and he came in a below-par seventh in 1m Carlisle handicap 16 days ago; blinkers replace usual cheekpieces with more required.

Still a maiden after 23 starts but he has posted some fair efforts recently, notably when third of 11 at Bath (5.5f, firm; first-time blinkers) in May; fifth of eight at Leicester (7f, good to firm) 17 days ago and has place claims now back in trip; blinkers back on (replacing cheekpieces).

Excellent claims on the form of his Yarmouth 1m handicap second last month but he came in only sixth of eight in similar company there two days ago; he still can't be discounted here though.

Keen-going sort who has been in mainly good heart in turf handicaps since May (26212), the win coming at Yarmouth (1m, good) in July; a player if maintaining his form on Polytrack debut.

Form & Verdict
Has offered little all four runs, off 12 months before coming in seventh of nine on his yard debut in 8.5f Wolverhampton handicap 23 days ago; was well backed there and his refusal to settle didn't help his fnishing effort; unexposed and now tongue tied.

Nine-race maiden but he's had a couple of thirds this summer and was beaten less than 2l when fifth at Brighton (7f, good to firm) ten days ago; ties in with Desert Beauty on that form and he's in the mix.
