Ran well when just touched off at Brighton (good-to-firm) over 7f last month but held twice since and remains on a mark 7lb higher than for her latest success.

Improved performer since cheekpieces were applied this time last year winning three of her four starts prior to disappointing over 7f at Haydock (good-to-firm) last time. Has won on the AW in the past and one to note in this contest.

All five victories have come on the AW including in a three runner contest at Wolverhampton in June. Fair effort when 2L fifth at Kempton over 7f subsequently and one for the shortlist today.

Placed on all three AW starts so far but beaten a head off an 8lb lower mark on the most recent of those at Wolverhampton in May. Has won on turf since and drops in grade having disappointed in a valuable contest at York last time.

Finished runner-up in a valuable 7f contest here last month and filled the same position returning to turf at Epsom (good) subsequently. Races off a 3lb higher mark today and looking for her first victory over this distance.

Broke her maiden over an extended 1m2f at Chester (heavy) when wearing blinkers (retained) for the first time 11 days ago. Made all on that occasion and is making her handicap debut dropping back to 1m today.

Sole victory came here over 7f in August last year. Disappointing in the main since and held fourth off a 1lb higher mark over this trip at Kempton last time out.

Winner of five of her 56 starts including three times on the AW. Ran well when second over 1m1f at Yarmouth (good-to-firm) last time out but more needed returning to the AW.

Registered her third victory (all at Brighton) when winning over 1m on good ground earlier this month. Carries a penalty for that success and will need to improve if she's to register victory number four.

Forecasts

Bumptious (10/3), Ghadaayer (4/1), Song Maker (9/2), Queensbrydge (5/1), Harba (7/1), Bint Dandy (10/1), Roman Holiday (12/1), Simply Me (12/1), Stosur (25/1), Andalusite (50/1)

Verdict

SIMPLY ME can register a second win in three outings by taking this competitive looking fillies handicap. The selection won a three runner contest on her penultimate outing but is usually held up in her races, tactics that are likely to suit given the presence of a number of front-runners today. Roman Holiday is another likely to be held up and she can put a disappointing effort last time out behind her while of those likely to race close to the pace the handicap debutant Song Maker can fare best by finishing third.
