Winner of her last two starts including over 5f at Doncaster (soft) last time out. Races off a 5lb higher mark today but every chance she's up to defying that rise in this.

Four times a winner but yet to score in seven starts for this stable. Handicap mark is sliding as a result and he makes his seasonal debut in this.

Seven time winner so far including off a 5lb higher mark in 2014. Finished 1L second at Chester (good) over 5f last month but disappointed over the same trip at York subsequently. Likely to put up a bold show here.

Winner at Thirsk over 5f on soft ground last time out. Handicapper has raised him 6lb for that victory and he is an interesting runner on just his fourth start for this yard.

Ten times a winner from 49 starts in total but well held in recent starts. Handicap mark is sliding and worth a check in the market for a yard who have had a couple of winners in recent days.

Forecasts

Stake Acclaim (11/4), Tumblewind (5/1), Escalating (6/1), Elysian Flyer (8/1), Foolaad (8/1), Confessional (11/1), Lexington Place (12/1), Huntsmans Close (25/1), Oh So Sassy (25/1), Treaty Of Rome (25/1)

Verdict

TUMBLEWIND can complete here hat-trick by taking this Class 3 5f handicap. The selection was successful on soft ground at Doncaster last time out and has the same jockey in the saddle here. Of her rivals today Oh So Sassy can put a poor run last time out behind her by finishing third while Stake Acclaim, a winner at Windsor last time and Confessional are others to note in this.
