8/1
All three career victories have come at this distance and scored off a 7 lb lower mark at Kempton in August. Consistent type but just about handicapped up to his best currently and this jockey is yet to have a winner from eight rides.

Respectable second behind Englishwoman at Southwell last time out but probably better over the minimum distance and trainer's in poor form.

10/1
Not won since this time last year and still 3 lb higher than that mark. Has performed okay here in the past but best performances have come on the fibresand at Southwell and he will need to find a career best to win this.

Respectable strike rate of nine wins from 89 starts. Habitual hold-up performer and this track unlikely to play to his strengths unless they go too hard up front.

16/1
One win from 21 starts and didn't need to improve to get off the mark in a maiden over C&D in November. Handicap mark looks fair but he's an inconsistent type and will need Kirby to get the best out of him if he's to score here.

5/1
C&D winner who seems to thrive at this track (placed in five of her six starts here). Not shown much in recent two starts elsewhere but claims back here off a 3 lb higher mark than she last won off.

11/4
Recorded back-to-back wins at Chelmsford and Wolverhampton and is two wins from three starts under today's rider. Disappointed as an odds-on favourite last time but step back up in trip is a positive. Generally races prominently and has won off this sort of mark before so can't be ruled out.

9/4
Still a maiden after 15 starts and unplaced in last ten. Ran respectably last time out on debut for this yard and claims if he can build on that as he looks well-handicapped on bits and pieces of form.

16/1
One win from 40 starts and current losing streak stands at 13. Still slightly above only winning mark and particularly poor last time out when tailed off. Hard to fancy.

Forecasts

Lightsome (9/4), Secret Bird (11/4), Camdora (5/1), For Ayman (8/1), Fujin (10/1), Divine Call (10/1), Sarabi (14/1), Firesnake (16/1), Tasaaboq (16/1)

Verdict

CAMDORA saves her best for this track and this mark doesn't look beyond her capabilities. With the yard in flying form she's taken to score in the weaker of the two divisions of this race. Lightsome has recently joined a new yard and made a promising debut for the trainer last time out; he's potentially well-handicapped on old form. If they go too hard up front Divine Call just might be able to run a place. 1. Camdora 2. Lightsome 3. Divine Call
