9/4
Good second in a 1m maiden at Kempton in December, and back on the up when just failing to overhaul Misu Pete over 7f here last time. Can score if backing that up.

In fine form since joining current yard, winning a pair of 6f handicaps here in recent weeks, but stays 7f, and is one to keep on side given her solid recent form.

Returned from a break with a promising third at Lingfield in December. but disappointing that she's been unable to build on that in two subsequent starts. Steps up in trip now, and must dig in.

Related to winners, and caught the eye on final qualifying start, but she ran poorly after stumbling early on handicap debut, and fitting of headgear now doesn't inspire confidence.

Hard to catch right, but got back to form when second of 13 to Limerick Lord at Wolverhampton last time in refitted cheekpieces. Not easy to predict whether she'll be in the same form now.

Ran well when runner-up behind Harbour Vision in a C&D handicap last time, and solid place claims on that, but worth remembering his maiden status is still intact after 26 outings.

Yet to make the frame in 11 starts to date, and latest effort was a poor one. Hard to support with any confidence, for all that run may have been needed.

Has dropped markedly in the weights, and produced her best effort this season when ½L third of 13 to Tarseekh over C&D last time. Can make her presence felt if continuing in same vein.

Hasn't beaten a single rival on her last three starts, and beaten into another parish at Kempton most recently.

Forecasts

Mochalov (9/4), Magicinthemaking (5/2), Pindaric (11/4), Swiss Cross (8/1), Blue Harmony (12/1), Caledonian Gold (14/1), Farl (14/1), Wotamadam (14/1), Beaming (50/1), Tilsworth Rose (66/1)

Verdict

MOCHALOV and Pindaric appeal most on recent evidence, with the former preferred despite conceding weight. Caledonian Gold can make her presence felt if building on a better effort over C&D last time.
