3/1
Won with loads in hand when eased down for a five length success to make it two in a row at Yarmouth. Up 10lb but likely she's still ahead of the handicapper and looks the one to beat.

3/1
Ran on strongly for a C&D win continuing an excellent run of consistent form. No penalty to carry and looks likely to go close again.

Due to go up 3lb for neck second to Pour La Victoire and remains on a competitive mark. Weighted to be close between the pair again.

In good form on AW at Kempton with a win followed by a second on Wednesday. Was running on late and will be suited by step back up to a mile. Can be competitive again if backing up.

Ran on well for first turf win last time but more required off 4lb higher in a stronger looking race.

6/1
Hasn't won since 2016 but racing off much reduced mark. Ended a poor run of form with a second last time and while he is entitled to be in the mix this does look tougher.

8/1
Well suited by 7f when running out a comfortable winner on AW and raised 7lb. However gets to race off only 4lb higher due to lower turf mark. Has struggled to see out the mile in the past.

50/1
Little worthwhile form in three starts in Ireland and well beaten both runs since joining new stable. Easy to overlook.

Forecasts

Marilyn (3/1), Pour La Victoire (3/1), Spirit Of Sarwan (9/2), Shamaheart (6/1), Connemera Queen (7/1), Garth Rockett (8/1), Luna Magic (12/1), Lone Voice (50/1)

Verdict

There's little between Pour La Victoire and Spirit Of Sarwan from their C&D run last time and off the same marks are weighted to go close again. However the way MARILYN won last time suggests it may take some time for the handicapper to catch up with her and she can complete a hat-trick of victories. Connemera Queen is making a quick reappearance following a win and is another to consider.

  2. Pour La Victoire
