Front-runner who's well suited by a stiff 1m2f, winning twice last summer and going close over C&D in the autumn off tonight's mark; soon gave way once headed on her recent AW comeback from eight months off and needs to improve a lot on that.

Steadily progressive daughter of Wootton Bassett who made a successful handicap debut at Epsom (1m2f) in July; aggressively ridden when a good fourth of eight at Yarmouth (11.5f) a week ago so she's a likely player off the same mark for yard well among the winners.

Made most and rallied well to win at Epsom (1m2f) in July on handicap debut, officially on good ground but probably good to firm; it had rained when disappointing favourite off this 4lb higher mark at Sandown (1m2f, good) two weeks later, chasing leaders before finding little; she's a player on the Epsom win and, as a 3yo, could have more to give.
