Has something to prove after dismal effort on turf debut at Salisbury (6f, good) last month but looked to have races in her when second of ten on handicap debut at Lingfield (6f, Polytrack) in April; considered.

SR 49 is modest for this company — needs everything to go right at 16/1.
Hinted at ability in a couple of starts over this trip on turf last summer, but her last two starts over 1m with cheekpieces added (including on Polytrack) were moderate; plenty to prove after eight months off.

SR 43 is modest for this company — needs everything to go right at 20/1.
Out of the frame in four starts, but looked ready for a return to this trip when a staying-on sixth of 15 on handicap debut at Nottingham (6f, good; first-time tongue-tie) in April; not dismissed.

SR 56 suggests ability but 17/2 reflects a stiff ask in this field.
Disappointed when favourite at Catterick (7f, good) 12 days ago, but had previously made just about all when winning convincingly over C&D; still 5lb higher, but much respected back here.

SR 70 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.
Best effort for James Fanshawe when third of nine behind a flourishing rival at Southwell (6f, Tapeta) on New Year's Day, but twice well held since including on stable debut back there last month; look elsewhere.

Did well in AW handicaps at the start of the year including winning over C&D from 2lb lower in February; last two starts leave plenty to be desired and he needs the blinkers to help turn things around.

SR 60 suggests ability but 9/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.
Well beaten when joint-favourite for his turf debut at Lingfield (7f, good) a fortnight ago, but had previously finished second of 12 on handicap debut over this C&D (first start since being gelded); high on the list returned to this venue.
