9/2
Ex-Irish trained filly has looked a shade regressive in three starts for current yard, gets another 2lb relief here and reproduction of last year's best would make her a contender.

C&D winner from 6 lb lower mark last term, fair run over longer trip nine days ago at Windsor should leave here spot on for this and goes on the shortlist.

10/1
Filly displayed promise in pair of 2015 maiden outings, she hinted some of that ability is retained when returning from a 470-day layoff at Newmarket 12 days ago over 1m2f, possible she can build on that effort now.

Finished ahead of Ducky at Newmarket recently but that was essentially a backwards step for this filly and it was a second in succession. Bit to prove right now as a result.

Some promise in AW maidens last year, reappearance at Beverley in May (1m2f, good to firm) was very poor when attempting to make all on turf debut. Since left Luca Cumani to join this yard and gets Atzeni on board after Goodwood treble yesterday. Market check warranted ahead of this handicap debut.

11/4
Winner at Pontefract in May (1m2f, good) from a mark of 64, well held however on pair of turf runs at that track and Hamilton last month. Needs to bounce back now.

Forecasts

Bonnie Arlene (11/4), Carducci (4/1), Kath's Legacy (4/1), Gilded Reflection (9/2), Great Court (5/1), Duchy (10/1)

Verdict

DUCHY ran a fair race last time at Newmarket considering she'd been off for 470 days. She gets 3lb relief for this and might be worth chancing in what looks a tricky heat. That form ties her in nicely with Carducci, who needs to bounce back after a couple of recent lacklustre efforts. Great Court is worth noting in the betting on debut for a new yard and going in handicap company for the first time while Gilded Reflection would be a player if able to recapture her best Irish form.
