The last of her three career wins to date came over a mile at Bath back in October when she beat Polymnia by a length. She has shown modest form in her two outings to date this season and is the only four-year-old in this line-up. Will need her very best form to score.
Showed great promise in her first three starts as a juvenile and shaped with a degree of promise on her first run on this track in December. Returned here earlier this month and having been sent off favourite, she stayed on well to win. May not have liked the cut underfoot at Newmarket last time and could go well back here.
Showed plenty of potential on her debut over 7f at Kempton last September but was a shade disappointing when a warm favourite for her next race at Leicester over the same trip. Had her first run at three last month and ran out a ready winner and is a leading contender.
Sent off at long odds in her first two outings as a juvenile, showing a modicum of ability in races over 6f and 7f. Did not look the easiest of rides when running a cracker for a 33/1 chance here in April when beaten a neck and was not disgraced last time. A lively contender.
Her best effort in four outings as a juvenile came in a 7f event at Newcastle in October when beaten just over a length by the William Haggas-trained Crushed, who was sent off odds-on. Fair run on her seasonal bow, she is having her first race on this track tonight.
Sent off at odds of 33/1 in each of her three races at two, she showed signs of a little ability, without looking like opening her account. She returned at Goodwood earlier this month and was tailed off having played up during the race. Hard to fancy on the form shown to date.

Ghadaayer (1/1), Favourite Royal (5/2), Nostalgie (9/2), Singing Sands (10/1), Duchess Of Fife (12/1), The Lacemaker (12/1), Royal Icon (16/1), Beatbybeatbybeat (33/1)
Having shaped really well in her first three races as a juvenile, Nostalgle scored well over this course and distance before struggling a little in testing ground at Newmarket. She has solid claims here but slight preference is for GHADAAYER. A disappointing favourite on her second start following a pleasing debut run, she made an eye-catching winning return at Catterick and could go in again in this company. Singing Sands has the ability to win races and would be a leading contender, but was due to run yesterday. Royal Icon could be one to note, having her first run at Wolverhampton.
