10st 2lb

J: Saffie Osborne

T: Tom Ward

Smooth success at Nottingham (1m2f, good) on her reappearance in April; four solid efforts have followed, most recently a close second at Windsor 18 days ago when she was only picked off late; should remain competitive off an unchanged mark.

J: Ashley Lewis

Looked as good as ever when scoring in good style on seasonal debut at Nottingham (1m2f, good) in April but subsequent efforts, though respectable, suggest she's a shade vulnerable off her current mark.

10-34 on AW but latest well-held fifth on good to firm at Sandown took his turf record to a much less impressive 2-20; going softer than good arguably suits him slightly better but still hard to be confident.

Has a good 10-34 record on AW but his turf strike-rate is only 2-19; has a lower mark in this sphere but off since finishing last of six at Wolverhampton in March and a watching brief is the percentage call.

Got on a roll at the start of last summer, with the final leg of a five-timer coming over C&D (good); hasn't found the same form this year, though, and remains 3lb above the mark she defied here.

J: Charlie Deutsch

Made a bright start over hurdles and it was his stable debut when making all for a narrow success at Wincanton (1m7f, good) in March; those tactics could only bring an 11l-second at Taunton (about 2m, good to firm) nine days later but he impressed with some good leaps on the way round and the winner is promising; now makes handicap debut and this track should suit.

Lightly raced gelding who has been generally progressive so far and was runner-up behind a handicap blot at Salisbury (1m, good to soft) 11 days ago; sports first-time cheekpieces; likely contender.

Resumed from a layoff in good nick, her stamina carrying the day over 1m on comeback before a solid effort off her revised mark over C&D last time; one to consider under Billy Loughnane in first-time headgear.
