Che Bella¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: J Fanning| T: K Dalgleish| OR: 87

5/1

This seems to be her time of year and heads here in form with a Thirsk win and an Ayr second. Drop in trip is a plus but best turf form has come on soft so not certain this surface will suit on AW debut.

Form: 2-56612

Jousi^h¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: L Morris| T: H Palmer| OR: 86

8/1

Little chance in the Group 3 Oh So Sharp Stakes at the end of last year and ran as though in need of the run on handicap debut following a lengthy lay-off. Eased in grade yet more required.

Form: 41920-4

Regina Pacis⁴³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: K Shoemark| T: H & R Charlton| OR: 81| BF

11/4

Won for a second time on handicap debut at Windsor in a race that has worked out well. Just didn't see out the extra distance at Ffos Ls on ground softer than ideal and this should prove spot on.

Form: 61313

Club Tropicana¹³³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: R Spencer| OR: 79

9/1

Six-race maiden who should appreciate a return to an AW surface, however hasn't progressed from early promise. Well held when last seen in a tougher grade on handicap debut and others look stronger candidates.

Form: 6390-34

Bedwyyah^v¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: David Probert| T: Sir Michael Stoute| OR: 75

2/1

Ran up to the promise of her Thirsk win when collared late at Newcastle. Might be suited by attacking from the front in a race with not a lot of pace and is open to plenty of improvement.

Form: 314352

Late Change⁴²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Poppy Bridgwater⁽⁵⁾| T: D M Simcock| OR: 70

8/1

Didn't get a clear passage in hat-trick attempt at Newmarket in a stronger grade, She's proved highly progressive in last three starts and should be suited by the step back up to this trip. Looks the one to beat.

Form: 963112

Poppy Love¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Liam Jones| T: Tom Dascombe| OR: 70| CD

14/1

Won a maiden handicap over this C&D and has been around that level in two starts since. However this looks a much harder ask in this grade and others preferred.

Form: 364146

Forecasts

Bedwyyah (2/1), Regina Pacis (11/4), Che Bella (5/1), Late Change (8/1), Jousi (8/1), Club Tropicana (9/1), Poppy Love (14/1)

There's the chance from this draw that Bedwyyah may get the run of things and while she hasn't proved overly progressive there's likely more to come in time and should go well. The stable form continues to be a worry but Regina Pacis boasts some good form and this C&D could prove ideal. LATE CHANGE has everything going for her after a luckless run in a bid for a treble and remains a filly on the upgrade. Che Bella is respected if acting on this track.
