Likes it here and scored over 6f (good to firm) at the track in April. Has run with credit on all three subsequent starts and is worth another try over 7f from a mark 2lb higher than success. Respected.

Sole win came over this trip on the Polytrack at Kempton in a maiden last year, though unable to cut it in handicaps since. Mark now on the slide, but she looks in need a further assistance from the assessor before picking up a first handicap success.

Made the frame in a 7f Lingfield (AW) handicap in November from 7lb higher. Handles fast ground on turf and she is now on the sort of mark that might see her get more competitive, after a couple of sighters this term. Market check suggested.

Scored here over 1m (good to firm) in April in a classified contest. Went close in a Chelmsford handicap (1m, AW) from 3lb lower in May ,though was well beaten from today's mark over C&D last time and has a bit to prove after that.

10/1
A reproduction of her Lingfield maiden run (7f. good to firm) from 11 months ago might give her a shout from this sort of mark, though here first two handicap runs have not thrown up many positives. Market check suggested, as she may be capable of a better effort today.

Forecasts

One Big Surprise (7/4), Chica De La Noche (2/1), The Stalking Moon (5/2), Circulate (4/1), Characterized (4/1), Sparkle (9/2), Andalusite (6/1), Robin's Purse (10/1)

Verdict

THE STALKING MOON made a fruitless trip south last season, but this one can yield success. A repeat of or better than her last two efforts would make her tough to beat here, though One Big Surprise is respected and both Sparkle and Characterized are others to consider. Robin's Purse is not ruled out either from a diminishing mark and support for her would look very positive.
  1. The Stalking Moon
