Best when able to dominate but finished a beaten short-priced favourite last time out and yard have been a little out of form in recent weeks (one winner from 72 runners). Not a whole lot of scope from a handicapping perspective and may struggle.
Returned from a break to win at Chelmsford last month and plenty to like about the manner of that victory. Not been seen since but connections may believe she's on a good mark and this quite possibly the long term target. Not sure to want softer conditions on breeding though.
Got the better of Lincoln Rocks last time out and only up 4lb for that win. Should be more to come this season and certainly a positive that she's proven in the conditions. Yard do well with their fillies so can't be dismissed.
Shamardal filly, cost 160,000 gns as a foal and half-sister to six winners. Overcame greenness to score on debut and ought to come on for that run and go well again for a yard in excellent form with their juveniles.
Built on her reappearance with wins at Kempton and Doncaster and the manner of those victories suggests she's well-handicapped. Step back up to the mile looks in her favour but soft ground is the main question mark. Should run well providing she handles conditions.
Won a valuable conditions race at Chelmsford last year but not been in the same form since that win. Soft ground is an unknown but could be well handicapped on the level she showed last year and should come on for recent run at Haydock.
Both wins have come on firm ground in her career to date and only narrowly got up last time out. 4lb rise for that perhaps a little harsh and could be better handicapped rivals in the line up, despite more progress likely.
Winner of a Newcastle maiden last year and not disgraced on softer ground earlier in the season. May not be able to reverse the form with Tribute Act after finishing runner-up last time but place claims nonetheless.
Arrives here in search of a hat-trick after back-to-back wins at Windsor and won with a bit in hand there last time out. Proven in softer conditions but 7lb rise doesn't leave much margin for error.
Dead-heated in her maiden here in May but very disappointing last time out and drop back in trip not certain to suit. First-time hood applied.
Consistent sort and gives the impression she's thriving currently. Probably more progressive types in the line up but can't be dismissed here and each-way claims dropped back to a mile.
Started this year in better form for this yard recording back to back wins at Brighton and Goodwood but handicapper seemingly caught up with her for now and likely to struggle in a deeper contest.
Still a maiden after five starts and well beaten in a maiden here on second start. Couldn't back up a promising run at Newmarket two starts back when finishing fifth of seven at Windsor and may need more time to be seen at her best.
Forecasts
Tribute Act (7/2), Pretty Asset (11/2), Ghadaayer (6/1), Shenanigans (15/2), Sayem (9/1), Amabilis (10/1), Lincoln Rocks (12/1), Angel's Quest (16/1), Darkroom Angel (16/1), Al Nafoorah (16/1), Hadeeqa (20/1), Soul Silver (20/1), Queensbrydge (40/1)
TRIBUTE ACT and Shenanigans hold similar form lines and preference is for the former who looks well treated and could be hard to beat if she handles the soft ground. Pretty Asset still looked green when scoring on debut and should go well again.
