Dual winner in the spring including off this mark at Redcar (good) over 5f in May. Not beaten far the last twice most recently at Salisbury (good-to-firm) last time and one to note here.
Made a winning handicap debut over this distance on good-to-firm ground at Lingfield two months ago. Saddle slipped when well beaten on soft ground subsequently and interesting if putting that behind her.
Sole victory came over 5f on good ground 13 months ago. Decent effort when runner-up at Brighton (6f, good) on his penultimate outing and wears blinkers for the first time having disappointed on the AW last time.
Victorious eight times from 63 starts most recently at Newbury (5f, good-to-firm) a year ago. Races off a 10lb lower mark here and one to note in this contest.
Dual winner at two in 2016 but disappointing in four starts since finishing a nose second off a 5lb higher mark on soft ground here in June. Return to this track may spark a revival.
Ran well when finishing a close third over 5f at Salisbury (good-to-firm) on his penultimate outing. Disappointing since and has won off a 2lb higher mark in the past.
Best effort this season came when finishing a close third at Thirsk (good-to-soft) over 5f last month. Well held at Bath (soft) subsequently and the better ground forecast here should see him in a better light.

Top weight LYDIA'S PLACE can follow up a good third at Salisbury last time by taking this sprint handicap following a 1lb drop in the weights. The selection has won off higher marks in the past and can defeat Cappananty Con who won last time out and represents a stable who are going well at present. Beck And Call had been in good form earlier this year and had issues with her tack when disappointing at Newbury last time out and she is taken to claim third here.
