Wide-margin winner of a weak novice race at Wolverhampton before scoring narrowly on handicap debut at Newcastle. Struggled in stronger company at Kempton and could bounce back down in grade on turf debut for in-form yard.
Won a novice stakes at Wolverhampton on Boxing Day and held her form well in handicaps since. Up 1lb after a solid run last time out and proving consistent. Unlikely to be far away again.
Monsieur Bond filly, a sister to Ladies Are Forever and Hoof It and unbeaten in two starts. Makes handicap debut off a feasible mark with improvement expected on turf this year but has shaped as though the trip is the bare minimum.
Two decent seconds is four novice starts for James Given last year and sold for 9,000gns in October. Makes stable and season debut but may find this a tough handicap introduction off his opening mark.
Failed to build on promise of debut third with two subsequent disappointing runs last year. Gelded ahead of season and handicap debut and doesn't stand out off this mark. Others preferred.
Up 5lb after completing an AW hat-trick off reduced marks. Won with ease the last twice and could remain ahead of the handicapper if able to transfer the form to turf. Rates a leading contender.
Twice a winner for Mark Johnston but has been very poor in two starts since joining current yard. Back on last winning mark but hard to fancy at present.

Airwaves (7/4), Solar Park (3/1), Klass Action (9/2), Camachess (6/1), Mykindofsunshine (7/1), My Excelsa (8/1), Sirius Slew (20/1), Axel Jacklin (33/1)
Airwaves will be rightly popular after two opening wins but her future lies over a touch further and she may be vulnerable at this distance on her reappearance. Klass Action is proving reliable while for a stable flying at present and a top jockey booking, Solar Park is a clear chance down in class. A chance is taken that the rapidly improving CAMACHESS can transfer her AW form and complete a four-timer.
