Finished last of eight on stable debut at Wolverhampton last month (1m1f+), and makes little appeal dropping back over 3f in trip.
Well beaten on both starts as a juvenile (6f) and shouldn't be strong enough in order to be competitive in this race.
Acclamation filly who cost £24,000 as a juvenile, but has been slow to make her mark on the track so far. Back up in trip following a tame effort on the Fibresand latest (5f).
Once raced Equiano filly who cost €25,000 as a yearling. Looked in need of the experience on debut at Chelmsford (6f) last month, but was gradually putting it together late on to finish about 5L fifth of 11 to Kath's Lustre.
Society Rock filly who fetched 35,000 gns as a juvenile. Almost certain to appreciate this step up in trip on the strength of her staying on debut 3¾L third to Nearest Green here last month (5f).
Kyllachy filly who fetched £22,000 as a juvenile. Drops back in trip following her debut fifth of ten to First Contact over 7f here in early January, and that looks far from certain to suit.
Half-sister to a number of winners including the 7f juvenile scorer Sharaakah, but hasn't shown much signs of ability in a couple of starts so far (5f and 6f), so couldn't be recommended.
Kodiac filly who cost €23,000 as a juvenile. Showed promise when finishing 2½L third to Silca Mistress on debut at Thirsk in June (6f good to firm). Her odds of 33/1 suggested that was unexpected, but surprisingly hasn't raced since. AW debut.
Pivotal filly who is a sister to the 6f winners King Of Spin and Houdini. Makes appeal based upon her connections, but offered no more than minor promise on debut at Chelmsford when 7¾L third of five to 1/8f Danzan (6f).
Shaped as if she needed the race on debut here in November (7f), but less aesthetically pleasing next time at Wolverhampton, so this daughter of Roderic O'Connor probably needs to find further improvement to score.
Iffraaj filly who is a half-sister to the 6f juvenile winner Vitello. Paid the price on debut for racing too keenly when finishing down the field at Chelmsford (7f). Will need to drop the anchor to get home at this track despite a drop in trip.

Mayfair Rock (7/4), Regina Nostra (3/1), Marietta Robusti (13/2), Zadorra (7/1), Porrima (8/1), Meerpat (9/1), Daze Out (25/1), Whererainbowsend (25/1), New Rhythm (25/1), Nalaini (50/1), Canufeelthelove (80/1), Island Song (100/1)
Not all that much in the way of reliable form to go on, and the go-to yards in these type of races, William Haggas and Mark Johnston saddle what can politely be described as a couple of horses who are unlikely to be stable stars (Regina Nostra and Zadorra). A couple of the other runners have displayed slightly more initial promise than that pair, and these include the returning Porrima and the upped in trip Mayfair Rock. However, the safest play could be the once raced Mick Channon trained filly MARIETTA ROBUSTI. She was getting the hang of things late on at Chelmsford, and a stiffer test of stamina should suit (track), and it can only be considered as a further positive that the supremely talented Josephine Gordon now takes the ride.
