Form & Verdict
Opened her chase account at the seventh attempt when winning over C&D last month, and didn't have to improve to follow up off 4lb higher back here (2m4f, soft) a fortnight later; shoulders a 7lb penalty in her hat-trick bid, but she remains open to further progress back up in distance; strong contender.

Form & Verdict
Rather in and out this season but he beat two other finishers in 2m4f contest on heavy ground here in February, and that success was no bolt from the blue; more is required off a career-high mark but the step back up in trip should suit and Freddie Mitchell's claim is a plus.

Ran encouragingly on reappearance and won his next two starts, the second occasion at Fontwell (3m2f, good to soft) off 3lb lower in December; failed to fire when pulled up at Ffos Las (3m, heavy) after a two-month break a fortnight ago and needs to rediscover that earlier spark.

Has returned to form of late and gained his fifth chase success, at Ffos Las (3m, good) last month; there was no disgrace in finishing second to a resurgent Tommy Beau at Fakenham (3m5f, good) this month and he holds strong claims while in this form.
