Makes her handicap debut having won a maiden here over slightly shorter last time out. Clearly going the right way, and with the services of a top jockey in the saddle an opening mark of 70 could prove to lenient in time.
Not disgraced on handicap debut and has been dropped 4lb as a result, with her sights firmly lowered having been campaigned in maidens and a Listed contest. This looks to be an easier task again.
Dual-winner, both times off a lower mark than this, and hasn't been quite so impressive yet this year but is working her way down to what is starting to look a suitable handicap rating, and has place form at this course.
Not beaten far in a couple of maidens before running easily her best race in handicap company when dropped to 5f at Windsor last time. That was her first start over shorter than 6f and she holds solid claims off the same mark here.
Winner at Kempton in February (5f, standard) but hasn't built on that performance since. Last run can be ignored due to her blowing the start, but mild concern her only two victories have both come on the all-weather.
Has run some nice races recently, including when beaten only 2L at this venue last month (5f, firm). May need to find a little more in this company but she looks to be going the right way and is respected.
Yet to really find her feet since switching to this yard from David Evans', and failed to get involved in two recent starts off this mark over C&D.
Forecasts
Island Cloud (2/1), Coronation Cottage (5/2), Bella Alissa (3/1), Evening Starlight (7/1), Little Miss Daisy (16/1), Grand Myla (16/1), Silver Springs (66/1)
By far the least exposed contender in the field, BELLA ALISSA is taken to build on her maiden victory last time out. Having shaped with promise on her first two starts, she justified short-priced favouritism more easily than the official winning distance suggests at this course last time out, and there should be more to come from her in what doesn't look to be the deepest of handicaps. Island Cloud ran a fine race at Windsor last time and is feared most off the same mark, ahead of Grand Myla, who should find this race a more suitable challenge.
