On a handy mark on last year's form up to 8.6f and it's possible the drop back in trip will help, but she's been beaten a long way on both starts this season (1m4f/11.4f) and has something to prove.

J: David Egan

Won 1m Newcastle AW novice as 2yo; has played a part in handicaps since but her return at Leicester, when upped to 1m4f (cheekpieces replaced blinkers, return today), leaves her well short of what will be needed here.

Gained a first win in 7f Musselburgh maiden in November; not disgraced when ninth of 13 in 1m Newmarket handicap on her return last month, set a lot to do; should strip sharper here so not out of things.

Belied market weakness to get off the mark in first-time hood at Musselburgh (7f, soft; fifth start) in November; didn't match that form off this mark when sixth on nursery debut at Southwell (1m, AW) the following month; no hood for this return but any softening of the ground should be in her favour.

Switched to turf for last three starts and best of those when winning under Tom Kiely-Marshall over C&D (good to firm) on latest, albeit in a three-runner race; back up 3lb but considered seriously in another small field.

Still finding her level on turf, but only a neck behind Zooter when fourth in a C&D 0-70 latest (good to firm), the new trip no issue; bit more needed despite slight ease in grade; trainer took this last year.

J: Billy Loughnane

Big step forward on handicap debut when scoring at Nottingham (1m, good) last month; set a steady pace when trying 1m2f at Goodwood (good) three weeks ago, resulting in a creditable fourth of seven but she clearly needs to build on that.

Ulysses filly who took a big step forward on her handicap debut when scoring at Nottingham (1m) last month; showed a good attitude there, so she's not taken lightly despite a 5lb weights rise.

Close second in a Lingfield maiden (1m, AW) in December and things didn't go her way from wide draw at Wolverhampton later that month; Hollie Doyle is now booked on handicap debut and she could resume her progress back from a break; needs a close look in market.

Ran okay on her first two starts this season and has dropped down the weights but she's struggled on her last three runs; major turnaround needed in a first-time hood (replacing the cheekpieces adopted last time).

0-9; best effort came as a juvenile when a close second at Doncaster (7f, good to firm; RPR 70); placed four times since and is slipping back to a more competitive mark; well below par latest but each-way player on best efforts.

8/1

Verdict

The trip is an unknown for most of these fillies but FILLE IMBASSEE is out of a winner at up to 2m and could be suited by stepping up in distance on her second start for this stable. Safe Harbor (second choice) showed ability in each of her three starts over 7f and is open to improvement in handicap company over this longer trip, while Kokoluna could also have more to offer.
