Made a winning debut at Ayr (7f, good) last August; she has been running well in handicaps this summer and should be in the shake-up if the slower ground proves no hindrance.

Won on debut at Ayr last August and runner-up in two of her three handicaps, finishing close up behind Cancelled over C&D (good to firm) 11 days ago having made the running; 3lb better off with the winner for just under 1l; trainer won this with a 3yo last year; in the mix.

J: David Nolan

T: David O’Meara

Ready winner on debut at Ayr last August (7f) and bounced back from a couple of lesser efforts to be runner-up in first handicap this June (8.3f, Hamilton); second crack at 1m2f when beaten 6l into third at the scene of her win latest; that trip may want revisiting at some stage but she makes some appeal over 1m here.

Off the mark on second handicap start when landing moderately run race at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) in May; a little below that form when 6l third at Hamilton (favourite) in June but freshened up since and no surprise were this unexposed sort to resume his progression.

Suited by AW and looks attractively handicapped, having gained his March win off 2lb higher, but appears more exposed than most of today's rivals; overall record is 1-10.

Made all at Catterick (7f; 3lb lower) but couldn't repeat the trick over Ripon's 1m and he stays that far; however, not all horses take to Ripon and no surprise should he run well.

0-9 and had been regressive this year, but last month's fourth of nine at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm) was a step back in the right direction; ran well on soft ground last September and he's not ruled out.
