Won at the start of last year in a Lingfield handicap having been gambled on the time before and now resides on a 10lb lower mark having not repeated that form. Raced very freely here last time out over this trip and needs to settle better.
Makes her first start for this yard who have a good record with their stable switchers and a step forward here will come as no surprise. The usual headgear returns now and she can't be ruled out how down to a career low mark.
Looks at her best around Chelmsford (has a run style that suits the track) and almost made it 2/2 there last time out. Usually likes to race from the front but appears better over 5-6f and may just struggle over this trip.
Ran all of her maiden races on the AW before being switched to turf for her handicap debut (showed inexperience; ran freely) at Ayr over 7f. Absent since then but looks the sort who could make an impression off this sort of mark if ready to go after a break.
Has one standout effort to his name in maidens over 7f at Chelmsford on his second start. Not disgraced in handicaps although his mark has been dropped rapidly and probably had no chance after a slow start last time out.
Modest maiden overall judged on her form so far but has run with credit in most of her tries in handicaps. Respectable efforts in her last two runs (both at Chelmsford) but has been beaten off similar marks in the past and others preferred.
Dropped below his last winning mark of 57 which he attained over 6f on the Tapeta at Newcastle at the end of 2016. Hinted that he was coming back to form in his last couple of outings and has a chance off this mark.
Plummeted down the weights of late and had looked to be struggling until springing back to life last night over 6f here in a lowly grade. Stable have been in good form of late and won't have to carry a penalty here for winning so clearly of interest of this mark again despite the longer trip.
Winner of a 6f handicap here last March off an 11lb higher mark he's shown very little since and hardly looks one to be interested at the moment even off this lowly mark.
Turned in a good effort last time (best so far this year) when second over 5f last time out although that was a weak contest. Slow away on that occasion she did well to make up the ground but is very inconsistent and not sure to repeat that run here.
Was a fair maiden at best but that was in the past and has looked well out of sorts of late; left David Dennis for a new yard (makes debut for them here). So far untried at this trip of 7f and best watched for now.
Just the one win to his name on the turf over 6f at Thirsk he's looked out of sorts for the most part on Fibresand of late. Has something to prove even in this grade and trying Tapeta for the first time.
Forecasts
World Of Good (13/8), Clergyman (4/1), Play With Me (11/2), Ad Vitam (15/2), How's Lucy (9/1), Fikhaar (10/1), Sea Tea Dea (14/1), De Little Engine (18/1), Hugie Boy (20/1), Three C's (33/1), Night Shadow (40/1), Spoken Words (66/1)
The first division of a low-grade 7f handicap as the penultimate race on the card although it should prove competitive. Clergyman will be of interest if he takes up this engagement after winning last night in an apprentice race over 6f springing back to form and he won’t have to carry a penalty here although this trip might stretch him. World Of Good has to be of interest now she’s with Olly Murphy but it may well be worth siding with FIKHAAR here if she can get on the front end from a wide draw given the track is favouring front runners at the moment. How’s Lucy looks solid but has been beaten off this mark before and Ad Vitam is of more interest off this mark having hinted he’s coming back to form.
