Still relatively lightly raced but looks weighted to the hilt just now. That said, she is effective at this sort of level and fared batter than the finishing position would have you think last time out. Rider's claim may come in handy.

Held her own against the boys last year but still failed to get her head in front when it really mattered. Started the new campaign in reasonable form with a sound effort at Newmarket last month. Place claims from the same mark.

Won a similar race at Ascot last summer but was well held after reassessment. Still 3lb higher than her last winning mark, she needs everything to go her way. Yard is turning the corner, so worth bearing in mind if supported though.

Held her form well during her time with her previous yard but was never a threat during her debut for her current yard last time out. Has a bit to prove on a literal reading of that effort and vulnerable to improving types.

Only won at a modest level so far and was no match for Carlton Frankie last time out. Difficult to envisage the form being reversed and best to look elsewhere for the winner.

Won her maiden in good style but was well held in her subsequent handicap debut. Not seen since and comes here with a little to find.

Won a nursery handicap last season but was then totally out of her depth in a Group 3 at Newmarket. Not much to set the pulse racing from her first outing of the new season and best watched.

Forecasts

Carlton Frankie (10/11), Olivia Fallow (2/1), Southern Belle (11/4), Midnight Malibu (11/2), Rose Berry (13/2), Mininggold (12/1), Jumping Around (14/1), Compton Poppy (14/1)

Verdict

Hard to escape the claims of the progressive CARLTON FRANKIE, who was in irresistible form at Nottingham earlier in the week and will be a tough customer to deal with if this doesn't come around too quickly. However, she wasn't showing any signs of stopping and may still be a few steps ahead of the handicapper. Southern Belle sets a good standard and may well live up to the billing of topweight. Market support would be folly to ignore in a weak event. Olivia Fallow doesn't have too much to find and makes a touch more appeal than Midnight Malibu as the best of the rest.
