Has run fair races in defeat the last twice, finishing second on each occasion. Possibly finding her feet in handicap company now and demands close consideration with blinkers put back on.

Completed a hat-trick last summer, with one of those victories coming over C&D, but hasn't won since and his form seems to have levelled off recently. 2lb lower than when beaten 4lb at Windsor last time.

Made an encouraging start to her handicap career when second over C&D last time out. Goes off the same mark here and given how progressive she has been up to now another bold bid looks to be on the cards.

Still looking for a first career win but didn't seem to stay a mile when finishing last at Lingfield last month. Blinkers on but seems to require some more help from the handicapper before being seriously considered for win purposes.

4lb higher than when winning at Carlisle two starts ago and seemingly couldn't contend with that rise when fifth at Doncaster last time out. Would probably also prefer softer conditions.

Second at Leicester last time (5f, good to firm), was probably her best effort to date and having been raised only 1lb she should be thereabouts, given she looks to have more to offer at this trip.

Has shown little in any of five racecourse appearances so far, including when beaten 9L into 13th at Doncaster last time out. Looks set for a minor role once again.

Finished 4¾L behind Yorkshire Rover on handicap debut over C&D last time, and though that re-opposing rival is penalised, he will still have to find plenty of improvement in order to figure.

No win on the turf since her juvenile season in July 2014 and hasn't been running well enough over this trip recently to suggest that that run will be ending in the near future.

Only 1/34 in his career, and though he's now back down below that winning mark, this looks much tougher and he's best watched.

Forecasts

Flower Cup (11/4), Defining Moment (5/1), Agnethe (5/1), My Girl Maisie (13/2), Yorkshire Rover (13/2), Chetan (7/1), Shyarch (8/1), Multi Quest (16/1), Nicky Baby (20/1), Innstigator (25/1), Big City Boy (66/1)

Verdict

A few of these bring decent recent form to the table, including AGNETHE. This filly made a fine handicap debut last time out over C&D and is unexposed in this sphere, having only had four runs to date. With improvement likely off the same mark, she may get her head in front for the first time here, at the expense of recent C&D scorer Yorkshire Rover, who is penalised as a result, and Rae Guest's progressive filly Defining Moment.
