7/1
2lb lower than when winning a similar race first time out this season at Chelmsford (1m, AW). Also won her maiden over C&D last year (soft) and has run well on fast ground. Out of sorts since that win, but could do better following that 2lb drop and now back at this venue.

7/2
Broke her duck at the first time of asking for this trainer and on her seasonal return at Salisbury (7f, good to soft) last month. Was put up 3lb for that and went close to following up at Brighton last time over 1m (good to soft). Up a further 1lb, she needs to find more and her best form so far has been with cut, so still a little to prove.

5/2
Ended a frustrating run of seconds by getting off the mark at Wetherby (1m, good to firm) last time. Raised 5lb for that 2½L success, which is a concern looking at her previous form, but she goes on this ground and should remain competitive.

6/1
Sole success came in a Lingfield 7f (AW) maiden on her second start in December, but has regressed in three handicaps this spring since coming back from a break. Has now dropped a total of 5lb for that, which might see her more closely involved and she was favourite last time, so is no forlorn hope.

7/1
Scored on her debut at Newbury (6f, soft) last year and put in a couple of decent efforts in defeat in handicaps thereafter at up to 1m. Well beaten on her reappearance at Newmarket last month and on ground that suited her, so has a bit to prove in terms of conditions and whether she has trained on.

Broke her maiden at the seventh attempt on her seasonal reappearance at Salisbury in April (7f, firm), but well beaten on soft ground (1m) at Newmarket last time. Exposed and not easy to fancy.

5/1
Returned to action with a Southwell maiden win (1m, AW) in April, but well held at Newmarket (1m, soft) last time on her handicap debut. Dropped 2lb for that and less exposed than most here, she is not ruled out on her first try on good ground.

Forecasts

Al Nafoorah (5/2), Many Dreams (7/2), Whispered Kiss (7/2), Passcode (5/1), Sayem (6/1), Dance Teacher (6/1), Funky Footsteps (7/1), Ejayteekay (7/1), Snow Squaw (16/1)

Verdict

Ejayteekay should be capable of better now back at a track where she is proven, while Sayem could have a say in the outcome. Passcode is still unexposed and not one to write off from this sort of mark, but preference is for AL NAFOORAH, who admittedly has to prove herself following a 5lb rise in the weights, but she is at least consistent and handles a sound surface.
  1. Al Nafoorah
  2. Sayem
