Hasn't managed to strike a blow in three maiden runs, including over this trip, goes back up in distance for handicap bow here and worth a check in the market.

Hasn't really built on the promise of Lingfield debut over 7f in August in three subsequent maidens. Makes handicap debut now but has to unlock some inspiration.

Has gone close in both runs since coming back in this term, both over 7f. This trip shouldn't hold any fears and with first-time blinkers on should go well again in this.

Confidently ridden winner over this C&D 17 days ago and got the job done nicely. Goes up 6lb for that success but could be capable of more on second 3yo outing.

First outing on the AW for this son of Famous Name and he has plenty to find based on four efforts on turf. Should be helped going handicapping however.

Decent reappearance run at Brighton over the mile recently, drops 1lb now and makes AW bow with potentially more to offer.

Beat the best part of 7L over C&D in February, not always enjoying luck in running though didn't make much impact on the principles once seeing daylight.

Well held on handicap bow at Lingfield over 6f in August, hasn't run since and goes up in trip significantly with 3lb less to carry.

2lb lower than last month's C&D run when beaten just more than 4L finishing eighth of ten. Gets a hood added this time in a bid to uncover something more.

She has yet to threaten in three maiden outings, requires a good deal more now going handicapping for the first time but it could be on the cards.

Forecasts

Fleeting Francesca (7/2), Luduamf (7/2), Equal Rights (4/1), Mr Mac (9/2), Dravid (7/1), Badenscoth (12/1), Power Home (14/1), Follow Me (16/1), From A Distance (16/1), Brexit (33/1)

Verdict

FLEETING FRANCESCA is an obvious contender after her recent C&D success and while a 6lb hike is asking a decent question of her now, that was an improved run on her first 3yo start and she may well be ready to build on it in what essentially appears to be a weak looking contest. Stepping up in distance again, Luduamf has fair claims having run well in both starts this year and can pose the chief threat. Follow Me could land some place money if the hood works while handicap debutants Badenscoth and Power Home are worth a look in the betting.
