Seasonal bow over 7f at this track 18 days ago, looked likely to have benefited from that outing and, with longer trip here, may leave it behind.

Fastnet Rock filly won her maiden at Nottingham last summer over extended mile, remains open to doing better in handicaps but has been on the premises recently.

Newmarket maiden winner in October (7f, good-to-soft) returns to the track now for handicap debut and could be capable of a leading role.

Beaten 6L in 1m2f good-to-firm handicap at Nottingham recently, is just 1lb lower and had a bit to find on that evidence in what looks a competitive contest.

Beaten just over 3L in handicap at Nottingham over extended mile in November when last spotted, has a 3lb aid at the weights to assist on return to action. May require a bit more for win purposes.

Just denied in pair of AW maidens in December/January over this sort of trip, returns now in a handicap for the first time and should be able to have a say.

Form in three maidens doesn't inspire confidence, all coming over the mile twice on AW and once on turf. Up in trip now for handicap bow but others make much more appeal.

Forecasts

Vanity Queen (11/4), Elas Ruby (3/1), White Chocolate (7/2), Pattie (5/1), Billesdon Bess (11/2), Cotinga (11/2), Crimson Rosette (13/2), Darkroom Angel (7/1), Nastenka (10/1), Duke's Girl (14/1), High On Love (14/1)

Verdict

A maiden winner at Newmarket in the autumn, WHITE CHOCOLATE might be up to defying this opening handicap mark, she's run well in both starts and is open to further improvement now. Elas Ruby is up 4lb for her recent reappearance second at this track and it would be wise to have her on the shortlist. Crimson Rosette, Vanity Queen and the hat-trick seeking Darkroom Angel are other worth mentioning.
  1. White Chocolate
  2. Elas Ruby
  3. Crimson Rosette
