Makes her handicap debut and has to bounce back from finishing last but one in a maiden last time out. Travelled well enough in that but found little and has plenty to do off top weight here.
Still a maiden with the cheekpieces on for the first time after only finishing last but one in a Redcar handicap on her last start. Headgear now changed to blinkers and takes a massive step up in trip.
Fair maiden in has run in handicaps before but ran creditably in a maiden last time out at Haydock over just short of this trip. Had no problem with that trip (already staying further that her pedigree suggests) and may well be able to make her mark here.
Very consistent filly who won at Pontefract earlier in the season and followed that up with a sound effort last time out. Went on with the winner from a long way out and ridden a little more conservatively she may well be able to go close.
Proved easy to back on her last run but did well to defeat Bonnie Arlene at Kempton Park over 1m3f. Despite the revised weights she looked to win that with a little bit in hand and could well confirm the form here over slightly further.
Last win came on the AW over 7f at Kempton Park at the end of last year and ran a couple decent efforts on turf on her return this year. Failed to improve back on the AW last time when this trip looked to stretch her.
The second handicap debutante in the race who has had just the three starts in maidens and possibly showed her best form on her only AW start but ran well below that level last time. The ground (good to soft) could have been to blame there and she might be better back on this AW surface.
Stepped up significantly in trip here after her handicap debut over a mile last time when she finished third and ran creditably although the mark of 65 doesn't let her in lightly.
Very much looked to need a stiffer test when third here recently in a 1m2f handicap off a 1lb higher mark. Stayed on well for minimal pressure and this extra 2f could well be just what is needed to show her true potential.
Not won a race yet but has turned in some decent efforts in defeat with another good effort added to her CV last time. She was well placed though and may need a drop in grade to finally break her duck.
Forecasts
Cribbs Causeway (1/1), Bonnie Arlene (4/1), Glenys The Menace (8/1), Doreen (14/1), All About The Pace (16/1), Amelia Dream (16/1), Power Home (16/1), Charming Loza (20/1), Star Of Bristol (25/1), Settle Petal (33/1)
This looks an interesting finale with Cribbs Causeway showing improved form to beat Bonnie Arlene last time out and doing so with a little bit in hand and she should be able to confirm the form. Doreen should appreciate this better surface making her handicap debut while Amelia Dream should also be able to get involved. All About The Pace is solid enough but may need an ease in grade and at the prices the value may well lie with Power Home who should enjoy this trip which will allow her to show her true potential.
