Recent runs have been disappointing and still 5lb above her last winning mark which gives her a tough task here.

Her mark is slipped down to where she is starting to look tempting and from a yard that would certainly know how to use that mark. Worth watching in the market for any confidence given that fall in the weights.

Made an emphatic and dominant return to form when winning at Nottingham earlier in the week although may have been favoured where she raced on the track. Has a 6lb penalty here but more than capable of coping with that if in the same form as before.

Winner on the AW at Wolverhampton last time out (second win there) finishing off her race really well and should get a decent pace to run at here. Up 3lb for that win and should be able to cope with that if she is able to show the same form on turf.

Starts life for another new yard with the blinkers on for the first time. Did win a seller for one of her former yards but has finished weakly on a few occasions now and needs to improve.

The second runner in this race for the yard (also making her debut) but she showed only minor promise last year. Makes her handicap debut here and from a yard that know the time of day and worth a market check.

Would be far easier to fancy if she got away on terms but slow starts have continually blighted her chance. Did well in the light of those concerns to grab third last time out and with a better start she would have a chance here.

Runs from 6lb out of the handicap here and that gives her a tough task even more so as she's been in poor form of late on the AW.

With a good yard but well held in maidens and failed to improve on her handicap debut at Goodwood last time and runs from 2lb out of the handicap here.

Forecasts

Penny Dreadful (11/10), Dandilion (9/2), Manipura (11/2), Racing Angel (8/1), Cherry Kool (10/1), Cool Breeze (14/1), Zig Zag Girl (16/1), Noble Act (16/1), Sweet Zain (20/1), Little Cupcake (25/1), Willow Spring (33/1)

Verdict

This doesn’t look to be any stronger than the contest that PENNY DREADFUL blew apart at Nottingham on Monday and even under a penalty she must have a chance of following up. Not many come here in form and if Manipura gets away on terms then she would have a chance while Dandilion is interesting if she copes with the return to turf. Cherry Kool lurks on a dangerous mark and should be watched in the market while Sweet Zain is of similar ilk.
