Prolific on AW at the start of the year but his turf form has been a little patchy. Fast ground in his favour though and can't be ruled out if he reproduces his run from Yarmouth a couple of starts back.

Rattled off a hat-trick earlier in the campaign and proved this mark wasn't beyond her when only narrowly denied at Chepstow last time. Only up 2lb for that and fast ground is in her favour.

Has won twice on AW but yet to get her head in front on turf in 11 outings. Her better turf outings have come on fast ground so not one to put a line through after her recent promising efforts on AW.

Won at Sandown earlier in the campaign when losing her maiden tag but has struggled for form in her most recent starts. Handicapper has cut her some slack and useful apprentice takes off 5lb; not ruled out.

Yard have been amongst the winners this week already and this gelding put a promising run in at Kempton last time out. Already has two course wins to his name from earlier in the campaign and remains on a workable handicap mark.

Cost plenty so it must be considered disappointing that she's yet to win a race. Produced one of her better efforts at Yarmouth last time out and must build on that now.

Forecasts

Glamorous Rocket (9/4), Spot Lite (3/1), Three Little Birds (9/2), Grandfather Tom (9/2), Swing Out Sister (13/2), Princess Keira (9/1)

Verdict

With Rod Millman hitting some form, it might be worth taking a chance on SPOT LITE given his course form and he ran well enough in defeat at Kempton last time out returning from a short absence. Glamorous Rocket was only narrowly denied last time while Grandfather Tom has shaped like he has one in him off this sort of mark and his latest effort on turf was respectable.
