Form & Verdict
Her first three wins were at this track and last success was off 2lb higher at Redcar (6f, good to firm) last July; mixed results in five runs this year but her latest front-running second at Carlisle (6f, soft) was a decent effort behind a progressive 3yo; has claims if she can back that up and this drop back in trip should be fine.

She has run some good races in big-field handicaps over C&D and this is her level; not far off her recent best at Carlisle 16 days ago; each-way shout if getting it right at the start.

Placed in two big-field 6f Thirsk handicaps (both on good) this season and did well to finish fifth at Redcar in between, having lost significant ground at the start; still on workable mark; probably in the mix again.

J: Rhys Elliott

T: David Thompson

Five times a winner on turf and she lurks on a dangerous mark; ran well for second behind Eldeyaar over C&D on her reappearance last month (not the quickest away) and she did well when only fourth behind Run This Way at Redcar nine days ago having completely blown the start; should be involved if breaking on terms but that 'if' is substantial enough to prompt some caution.

Form & Verdict
Well handicapped on his win at Musselburgh last autumn and he's run several good races this year, including when third at Musselburgh (5f, good) 11 days ago; should go well again and he's in the mix.

C&D scorer who ran his most encouraging race of the campaign when third (Wee Mary second) over C&D (good) eight days ago; his best form of 2025 came at this time of the year so it's possible he can build on that.

Form & Verdict
Nine-time winner, including two over C&D (good to firm); had some ups and downs this year but he went close off this mark at Wetherby last month and was a respectable fourth of 13 at Newcastle last time; looks interesting back at this track and drying ground would be a positive.

Has a better strike-rate on the AW and he's won just once on turf in the last three years; however, he only just lost out over 5f at Catterick (good) in May and has a decent run in him if on song.

Acts on good to firm and good to soft; had an excuse over 7f on his reappearance last month and he returned to form with a strong-finishing win over C&D (good) two weeks ago; that was a cosy success in a first-time visor and a 4lb rise looks fair enough; big player.

Usually misses the break and can pull hard, as was the case on her 5f comeback at the weekend; capable of popping up if the stars align, as when winning a 0-50 easily over C&D last summer, but she's hard to recommend.
