Offered little on first outing since leaving Niall Thomas Egan at Ascot (7f, good to soft) 9 days ago. Vulnerable to less-exposed sorts so easy to look elsewhere.

In good form on AW at Meydan around the turn of the year and landed a first ever when on turf in a small field at Ffos Las (6f) in August. Shaped as if still in form when sixth at Doncaster since.

Useful filly who landed C&D handicap in July and just found things tougher in a listed event at Pontefract next time. Not ideally placed at Newmarket since so could bounce back.

Off the mark for the season when winning 10-runner handicap at Newbury (7f) in August and similar form when hitting the frame on his couple of starts. Consistent sort who should go well once again.

Proved as good as ever when narrowly taking 5-runner handicap at Brighton last month and similar form when a close fourth at Salisbury 10 days ago. Upped in grade here so could find this hard work.

Enjoyed a produced campaign for Grant Tuer, scoring 3 times and signing off with a creditable third at Catterick. Close third on first start for this yard last month so not dismissed from same mark.

Successful twice in 2020, including a Wolverhampton handicap off this mark in November. Best effort of the season after a break at Newmarket last time but a return to this venue tempers enthusiasm.

Developing a solid record in handicaps, adding third success to the tally at Salisbury (6f) in August. Solid placed efforts in stronger company have followed and she can feature again.

A few in with a shout but the vote goes to ATALANTA'S BOY. David Menuisier's charge got away on terms to pick up a fifth C&D success 6 weeks ago and, down in grade here, he's taken to can enhance his fine course record further. Spanish Star is one of the most consistent sprinters around so he could provide the biggest threat, ahead of Lovely Breeze.

  1. ATALANTA'S BOY
  2. SPANISH STAR (IRE)
  3. LOVELY BREEZE (IRE)
