Much improved recently for the step up to 1m4f and she got off the mark over C&D six days ago, edging out Crown Inn To Win late on; not taken lightly under a 6lb penalty.
Failed to kick on for Charlie Johnston and he was gelded before coming in last of five in 1m4f Kempton handicap in January; starts out for a new yard with something to prove; first-time tongue tie.
Ghaiyyath filly who advanced her form on her handicap debut when fourth of seven over C&D last month; she needs to take another step forward now though.
Sent off 9-4 for his handicap debut at Lingfield (1m2f) last month but he went keenly before fading into fifth; tongue strap goes on now with more needed if he's to get off the mark over this longer trip.
Cut little ice in a trio of novices (around 1m) last autumn; needs this switch to handicaps/longer trip to spark major improvement.
Returned from six months off with her best effort when third of eight in 9.5f maiden here 18 days ago; may do better still now venturing into handicaps.
Progressive form since sent into handicaps this year, set a lot to do when a clear second of six to Forever Perfect over C&D six days ago; hood retained and tongue tied is also added; player off an unchanged mark.
Has offered little in her three runs to date, beating just one in 7f novice here in January; handicap debutante.
Arrives in good nick, cheekpieces added when third of 11 in 1m4f Kempton handicap four weeks ago; he can go well again off the same mark in his bid for a breakthrough victory.
Yet to offer much in five outings, a never-dangerous sixth in 9.5f handicap here 17 days ago; cheekpieces go on now.
Sea The Moon gelding; always behind on his four starts to date, coming in a well-held sixth of eight in 9.5f maiden here on his return 18 days ago; much more is expected now he goes handicapping stepped up in trip; interesting.
