10/1

Only win was achieved as a juvenile at Beverley (7½f, good to soft). Not much to shout about in two runs over 1m2f this season or dropped to 1m at Ascot recently. Plenty to work on.

11/4

Yet to live up to her 230,000 gns purchase tag but looks the type to improve and did so when third on handicap bow at Leicester (6f, good to firm) three weeks ago. Should be more to come.

5/1

Lightly-raced maiden, went close last month over C&D (second of 13), not as good on AW at Kempton since but can be a player back here seemingly.

25/1

Filly improved on fourth start (first on turf) at Salisbury (7f, firm) earlier in the month, though even that run leaves her with work to do.

Forecasts

Rux Ruxx (11/4), Gainsay (3/1), Hilight (5/1), Teenage Gal (6/1), Lethal Angel (6/1), Popsicle (10/1), Apple Anni (10/1), Billie Beane (12/1), Black Lace (25/1)

Previous C&D winner GAINSAY ran well enough off this mark at Brighton last time to suggest she's going to be in the mix back here. She should go close for her in-form trainer. Rux Ruxx improved for the switch to handicapping at Leicester recently and is likely to get involved while Hilight has already run well over this track and trip and should bounce back from a below par effort on the AW last time.
