Duck Egg Blue¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Paula Muir⁽⁷⁾| T: L A Mullaney| OR: 79| CD

1/1

C&D winner here when landing a landing a handicap on good to firm ground off a 9lb lower mark last month before a 4¾L defeat off her new rating and upped in class. Capable of having her say here.

Form: 2330-18

Polly Glide³⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: P Hanagan| T: L Smyth| OR: 73

10/1

One of three Irish raiders from the yard at this meeting. Worth a check in the market based on her second of nine over C&D last month.

Form: 6/544-27

Ce La Vie¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Callum Rodriguez⁽³⁾| T: K Dalgleish| OR: 71

6/1

Sole win in ten starts on the Flat came on her debut but has generally struggled since including in eight handicap starts. Vast improvement needed to figure.

Form: 8-40276

What Wonders Weave⁵³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: T P O'Shea| T: R J Osborne| OR: 70| CD

18/1

Won over C&D in September as favourite off a 1lb higher mark for previous handler. Best form gives her a claim but well held on seasonal debut last month.

Form: 13405-9

Forever A Lady⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-1| J: P Mulrennan| T: K Dalgleish| OR: 66

4/1

Hasn't won for over a year now but has dropped to a mark 3lb below her last winning one. Well held over C&D last week may find one or two stronger in the finish here.

Form: 37-7535

Alexandrakollontai^b¹⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 9-1| J: J P Sullivan| T: A C Whillans| OR: 66| C| D

14/1

Course winner that has also won over the trip. Generally out of sorts in five desolate displays this season and difficult to see any light at the end of the tunnel just yet.

Form: 0-90868

Bush Beauty¹²

Age: 7| Weight: 8-12| J: Rachel Richardson⁽³⁾| T: E J Alston| OR: 63| D

14/1

Landed a shock earlier this month when taking a Chester handicap over 7½F by 1L. Will need to eek out a little more here off a 2lb higher mark.

Forecasts

Duck Egg Blue (1/1), Forever A Lady (4/1), Ce La Vie (6/1), Polly Glide (10/1), Alexandrakollontai (14/1), Bush Beauty (14/1), What Wonders Weave (18/1)

BUSH BEAUTY continued her improvement on turf when winning a Chester handicap over 7½f earlier this month beating seven rivals 1L and can defy a 2lb penalty in this contest. C&D winner Duck Egg Blue and Irish raider Polly Glide can hit the frame while What Wonders Weave C&D winner in May last year could be of each way interest.
