7/1
Scored on debut for new yard and 5lb rise for that effort looks more than fair. Should carry on progressing but soft ground not sure to be ideal.

7/1
Disappointed as an even money favourite two starts back at Chelmsford and struggled on her first turf start at Sandown last time. Yard could hardly be in better form and they do well with their runners here but hard to fancy on the back of that last effort.

5/1
Exceed and Excel filly who despite racing very green on debut, still managed to get her head in front. The form of that effort has been franked multiple times since and every chance she's on a lenient handicap mark. Yard do well with horses returning from a break and should go on progressing this season. Leading claims.

Impressive debut at Newbury when getting the hang of things late on but that run possibly left it's mark as she has been very disappointing in three subsequent starts. Hard to fancy in current mood and needs to bounce back.

Has been running to a consistent level and managed to get off the mark at the fifth time of asking at Lingfield last time. Had the run of the race somewhat and may find life tougher here.

10/1
Firm ground winner at Salisbury last time but unlikely to get those sort of conditions here and she looks more exposed than the rest of the field. Step up in trip may bring out more.

14/1
Probably didn't need to improve to score at Beverley last time out and opening mark looks fair enough but she may be vulnerable to a couple that are on lenient marks.

Carducci16

Justified long odds-on favouritism when winning over 1m at Goodwood (good-to-firm) last August. Well beaten on handicap debut though and looks vulnerable in this company on soft ground.

Miss Laila22
Age: 3|  Weight: 9-3| J: P Cosgrave| T: Tom Clover| OR:  71
12/1
Cut in the ground when she won a Chepstow maiden on her final start for Richard Hughes but didn't break well enough to be seen at her best at Lingfield last time. May do better returned to turf provided she gets away on terms.

Harmonise16
Age: 3|  Weight: 9-2| J: S De Sousa| T: M R Channon| OR:  70
6/1
Still a maiden after six starts but this trainer usually finds the key to his fillies and she has the benefit of a recent run at Nottingham. Likely to do better with top jockey booked.

See The Sea16
Age: 3|  Weight: 9-1| J: Tom Marquand| T: R Hannon| OR:  69
16/1
Some promise on her debut at Doncaster but largely disappointing in three subsequent efforts. May come on for her recent reappearance at Wolverhampton and her best effort came with some cut in the ground so she can't be ruled out.

Moonlight Silver15
Age: 3|  Weight: 9-0| J: M Dwyer| T: W R Muir| OR:  68
25/1
Unplaced on all three starts to date and this looks the deepest contest she's faced so far. Yard particularly quiet in recent times and probably best watched.

Record now reads 0-8 and blinkers tried last time are removed. Would have claims on runs at Goodwood and Kempton last term but more recent efforts are less encouraging.

Verdict

TRIBUTE ACT was an impressive winner last time out and there should be more to come if she's ready to go after an absence. Nostalgie is another who was impressive last time out and provided she doesn't mind the soft ground she looks capable of grabbing a place. The return to soft ground may work in the favour of See The Sea who can come on for her recent reappearance.
