7/1
Slightly disappointing when 6/4f for her final start at two, though the ground may have been to blame that day and there's no reason the step up in trip/switch to AW here should be an issue.

8/11
Has shown good form in two of her three starts so far (the exception was a Listed race), and despite carrying a penalty she looks up to running another big race over a C&D she placed over last time out.

10/1
Leroidesanimaux filly who cost €42,000 as a yearling. Related to a couple of winners and the market may prove to be the best guide to her chances.

Improved from her debut effort to finish third on AW bow at Wolverhampton last time out. Needs another big step forward to play a part here, though.

14/1
Requinto newcomer, who may be expected to be at her best over shorter than this based on her stallion, though there is some stamina on the dam's side.

Beat only one home on debut at Salisbury last time out over this trip, and needs plenty of improvement if she's to challenge the leading contenders here.

Couldn't run to the level of his debut performance at Wolverhampton when beaten 19L at Haydock last time out. Step up in trip here may help.

Minovia

6/1
Caradak filly who is related to a few winners, but pedigree is unexciting overall and she's best watched on this first racecourse appearance.

Forecasts

Shailene (8/11), Inpromptu (6/1), Minovia (6/1), Hollydaze (7/1), Alcina (10/1), Jedhi (10/1), Guitar Georgia (14/1), Hypothetically (16/1), Dame Vera (20/1)

Verdict

Having run well on two of her three starts to date (the exception was a Listed contest), SHAILENE can defy a penalty to win again here. Having gone well over this C&D when last seen, William Cox's 5lb claim is another positive for her chances. She is taken to get the better of fellow previous winner Hollydaze, while Jedhi out-ran big odds to run a fair race on debut last time out.
