11 race maiden and disappointing in the main so far this year. Fair effort at Yarmouth on her penultimate start however and chances if repeating that.

Successful four times so far most recently over 1m here in November 2015. Out of form of late and worth a check in the market here.

Signs of promise in France for previous yard but well held in three outings for current stable and others look more likely winners of this.

Fair efforts in maidens and ran well when finishing runner-up over an extended 7f at Lingfield (good-to-soft) on handicap debut earlier this month. Subsequent fourth over this trip at the same track bodes well for her chances today.

Stepped up on previous efforts when finishing fourth in a 1m4f selling handicap at Brighton (good-to-firm) last time out. Interesting runner dropping back in trip.

Placed once from ten starts though put in a respectable effort when 5L sixth over 1m at Chepstow (good-to-soft) last time. Wears cheekpieces for the first time stepping up in trip racing from out of the handicap here.

Forecasts

Tommy's Secret (7/2), Chilli Jam (4/1), Rocksette (9/2), First Summer (13/2), Dor's Law (10/1), Seventii (10/1), Conistone (12/1), Cahar Fad (14/1), Dukes Meadow (16/1), Street Art (20/1), Stragar (20/1), Yorkshire Star (25/1), Avocet (33/1), Master Of Song (33/1)

Verdict

ROCKSETTE has shown promise on both handicap starts to date and can take this on just her second outing over this trip. The selection is taken to get the better of Chilli Jam who ran well over this trip at Bath last time out and races off a 1lb lower mark today while Seventii, another with relatively few miles on the clock can step up on her Brighton fourth by claiming third with today's drop to 1m2f likely to suit.
