CNA Hardy Handicap (Lady Amateur Riders)

Scored from a reduced mark at Brighton when last seen, making all in game fashion and entitled to come on for that effort. Still looks on a fair mark and leading claims once again.

Back-to-back winner last summer but has struggled since. Step back up in trip in his favour but not a lot of scope from a handicapping perspective.

Stable do well with these types and this one previously ran for the Hannon yard and nearly scored on his debut for his current team taking advantage of a slipping mark at Yarmouth. However he didn't improve on that over the same C&D (led again) and needs to show more here to be involved at the finish here.

Not won since 2015 and losing run now stands at 21. Well beaten on all recent starts and needs the new combination of headgear to spark a return to form if he's going to get his head in front here.

Took advantage of a well judged ride to land a ladies race last time. Extra furlong won't be an issue and could still be effective in a race of this quality despite the 10lb rise in the weights. Fast ground to suit and top lady amateur rides.

One win from 11 starts and probably needs a return to class 6 company and/or the AW if he's to get his head in front. Well beaten at Wolverhampton last time and seemingly up against it.
