Cosy 1½L winner over C&D last week and turns out quickly in a slightly more competitive contest under a penalty. However, has shown an ongoing affinity for this track and that often counts for plenty.
Recorded back to back victories at Sandown and Goodwood in August 2016 (both 5F) before tailing off at the end of the year, but back in good shape when a close third to Roy's Legacy at Chepstow recently so enters calculations.
Neck winner of a 5F Lingfield maiden in January on just her third career start, and not helped by the draw when runner up to Fethiye Boy (runs earlier) on handicap debut at Windsor earlier this month. Up 2lb.
20/1 juvenile maiden winner at Windsor in September 2015 (6f good to soft) and ran well when 1L third on handicap debut to the subsequently progressive Marquee Club here later that month. Well behind Monteamiata latest, but possible to put a line through that effort (seasonal reappearance). Rain will help her chance.
Placed in three starts in maidens as a juvenile (all over 6F), but finished last of nine to Edged In Blue on seasonal reappearance at Yarmouth last month and needs to bounce back.
Not shown masses in two starts in handicap company (including over C&D) so needs to take a sizeable step forward in order to make it seventh time lucky.
Seemingly improved to break the maiden tag at the 16th attempt over C&D last month (beating amongst others Cee Jay and Hurricane Alert who line up in the previous race at 7.25pm). 6lb higher and up in grade but worthy of consideration.

Forecasts
Monteamiata (5/4), Sitar (9/2), Babyfact (5/1), Go Amber Go (5/1), K'gari Spirit (8/1), Powerful Dream (9/1), Incentive (10/1), Kingstreet Lady (10/1), Silver Penny (14/1), Polkadot Princess (25/1)
A competitive heat, and one which we can learn plenty from the earlier races on tonight's card with a number of these runners having previous form closely aligned with various runners in earlier races. These horses include Kingstreet Lady, Monteamiata and Silver Penny. Monteamiata is open to considerable improvement, and her run behind Fethiye Boy can be marked up. However, others also have appealing claims, notably Babyfact who despite being high enough in the weights ran well at Chepstow latest, and GO AMBER GO who has thrived matched with Lulu Stanford, and can be fancied to notch the hat-trick at a track we already know from past experience that she handles.
