9/2
Like the majority of this field she makes her Fibresand debut here having shown some modest form a two-year-old (best when runner-up at Newcastle in a 7f nursery). Below form when last seen on turf and now back in handicap company; pedigree gives hope she will act here.

9/1
One of the few that have had experience of the Fibresand and made his handicap debut here last month (finished last of five) off a mark of 64 and looks on a stiff mark. Dropped 4lb for that run but more needed and his best furlong came over 7f.

Maiden form over shorter suggested that she had been brought along with handicaps in mind although her two starts in this sphere leave some room for improvement. Stepped up to this trip last time she travelled well before failing to quicken; sire has a good record here.

No experience of this surface and remains a maiden; ran his best race last time out when well backed back up to a mile at Newcastle. Appears reasonably handicapped although here and should enter calculations.

Early days with this yard having previously been with Tim Easterby and she showed improved form to get off the mark last time out switched to Tapeta (appeared to enjoy the mile). Made her debut for this yard here but that was over 5f and this trip will suit far better.

16/1
From a stable that is going fairly well at the moment she showed her first form last time out over a mile at Chelmsford. She's had one previous experience here (finished 7th over 7f) and may do better this time around having run better last time.

25/1
Started to look a difficult ride (too free in first-time blinkers) on her handicap debut and took a strong hold on her second handicap start last time. Makes her first start on Fibresand on her debut for a new yard but given her previous form looks one to watch here.

Made her debut in the Norfolk Stakes at Royal Ascot (started 200/1) for her previous stable but has shown little in two runs for this yard. Now goes handicapping for the first time on a new surface but hard to build a solid case.

Did show a little improvement on her handicap debut but that progress hasn't really been maintained in two subsequent runs although she could be excused her last effort. Now switches to Fibresand and given a chance if she takes to this surface off a basement mark.

Forecasts

Odds On Oli (9/4), Foxy Lady (9/2), Lady Jayne (6/1), Plansina (7/1), Be Mindful (8/1), Ipcress File (9/1), Political Slot (16/1), Cherubic (25/1), Poorauldjosephine (33/1)

Verdict

This is a difficult heat with several of these having not had any experience of Fibresand and PLANSINA who has run here once before over the wrong trip (5f) may well be better over this mile and could well confirm Newcastle form with Odds On Oli. Lady Jayne is of interest off a lowly mark ad even though she is slightly out of the handicap she may be able to do better for a yard that are always to be respected. Be Mindful is another to be considered here with her pedigree suggesting she should be suited by this surface.
