4/1
Three runs since joining her current stable, winning once and being placed on the other two occasions. Starts her four-year-old campaign off a workable mark and her trainer is a dab hand with sprinters.

4/1
Experienced campaigner who has won eight of his 59 races on turf and AW. Not been at his best lately, but is inching down the handicap and it is too soon to write him off.

Two runs for his new stable since leaving Ed McMahon, both at Wolverhampton where he ran respectably. The switch back to turf should not be a problem, but he needs to up his game.

7/1
Has been running in these types of races for years and has a career record of 12 wins from 112 starts. Was in particularly good form on AW tracks at the end of last year, but has not been quite so good since. Finished third over 7f at this track last week.

11/8
Loves the seaside air and has plenty of good form at this track. Progressive last year, he made his reappearance over C&D last week and ran a fine race to be second, beaten only a head. Should strip fitter and is a sure to make a bold bid.

15/2
Only win in 16 starts came at Bath last June, but he is quite consistent and ended last season with three runner-up placings at the same track. Did not show a great deal on his return at Wolverhampton, but that will have blown away the cobwebs.

Forecasts

Bahamian Sunrise (11/8), Cosmopolitan Girl (4/1), Sandfrankskipsgo (4/1), Swiss Cross (7/1), Showmethewayavrilo (15/2), Emjayem (25/1)

Verdict

Bahamian Sunrise likes it here and is the obvious one in a tricky handicap. However, COSMOPOLITAN GIRL is lightly raced and open to plenty of improvement under the guidance of her skilled trainer. She is taken to make a winning return.
  1. Cosmopolitan Girl
  2. Bahamian Sunrise
  3. Showmethewayavrilo
