Eight AW wins, including at Wolverhampton (1m6f) and Newcastle (1m4f) under Conor Whiteley on her last two outings; has to prove her effectiveness on turf (well held in three attempts much earlier in career) but has to be respected in her current mood.

Captured a third success when winning at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) in December but he's still 3lb higher despite going 0-12 subsequently; has run well on plenty of those occasions, and today's conditions should be fine, but others are more interesting for win purposes.

Won at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW) last spring but he's struggled in his last eight starts including over hurdles in last two runs; now 10lb lower than for his last success but he needs a big turnaround for new yard (has changed hands and left Mike Smith); hood removed and cheekpieces return.

Patchy form in Irish handicaps last year but her third-place finishes at Killarney (1m3f, good) in May and Ballinrobe (9.5f, good to yielding) put her in the picture; got going too late over 1m6f when last seen in August; requires a market check on this stable debut.

Did well last year, winning three times over 1m2f; yet to hit top gear after three starts this season (1m3f-1m4f) but is back on a good mark and won't mind what the weather does; might be the answer.

Won three times under Jake Dickson last August/September (1m2f, good to firm-good to soft); no impact in two runs this season but she caught the eye with her late headway at Carlisle (1m3f, good) last Friday; has claims if she can build on that and she won't mind what the weather does.

Yet to score but he went close at Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) in December and was only beaten 3l despite finishing in midfield at Nottingham (8.5f, good; Powerful Response third) on his return three weeks ago; shaped well that day (hit the front before fading) and he's a candidate to build on that despite being drawn widest.
