Form & Verdict
Showed a bit more at Lingfield (6f, AW; previous runs at 7f) on his final qualifying run and it was an encouraging handicap/turf debut when fourth of ten at Windsor (6f, good; Summertime Blues second) 11 days ago; didn't get the breaks that day and can do better from the same mark.

12-race maiden; track and ground no concern and he was running on well when second over 5.3f here 12 days ago; has been placed over 7f but others may see it out better.

0-11 but has made the frame in seven of his eight starts in handicap company, including when fourth of 12 in this headgear combination on his return from five months off at Bath (5.7f, good to firm) 18 days ago (She Went Whoosh second); drops to this level for the first time and respected.

J: David Probert

T: Gary & Josh Moore

Ten-race maiden who can take a strong hold but he finished well when runner-up over C&D (heavy) last autumn; returns after five months but he's handicapped on his best form and has had only three runs for current yard; needs a close look with hood added.

Form & Verdict
Beaten nearly 20l in each of his qualifying runs from 7f to 1m; but he attracted strong market support when second on his handicap debut at Windsor (6f, good; Mister Sandman fourth) 11 days ago; up 2lb with cheekpieces on; looks sure to go well.

Made the breakthrough in a track classified (7f) in June and was caught only close home when third under a penalty over C&D (also good to firm) the following week; didn't match those efforts back in a handicap at Leicester last time but the return to this venue is a positive.

Form & Verdict
Inconsistent filly who is seeking her first win after ten starts; prominent in the market when finishing last of six at Chepstow (5f, good) three weeks ago but her best run did come on this track, beaten a neck into second over 5.5f (good to firm) in April; probably stays this trip so hopes pinned on this track bringing out the best in her again.

Wore this equipment combination on last three starts, beaten a nose in a Brighton handicap (5.2f, good to firm) on first occasion and making all in a classified here (5f, good) on second; wide draw and interference leaving the stalls prevented those tactics at Windsor three weeks ago; 5lb claimer is on board this time; should be of renewed interest.

Went very close in first-time tongue-tie/blinkers in Brighton handicap (5.2f, good to firm) last month then made all in a classified at Leicester (5f, good); it took her a long time to post that first win but she came clear with a subsequent winner at Leicester and is unexposed in this headgear combination; can make another bold bid.

Unexposed 3yo who chased home short-odds winner on seasonal/handicap/turf debut at Lingfield (7f) in June; raced freely that day and benefited from the drop to today's trip when second to another short-priced favourite at Windsor (6f, also good) 11 days ago; again went through that with a bit too much enthusiasm so the incoming hood may help; considered.
