Won a maiden over this C&D on quick ground and sole win since came off this mark. Capable performer on her day but is not the most consistent and a bit more needed from the level of her three runs this year.

9/1
Not at her best last season and was well beaten on her final two starts. Starts out for a new trainer with a change of scenery needing to spark a revival. Market should provide a guide.

Progressive filly winning her last two visits to an AW surface, however proved very disappointing back on turf at Doncaster two starts back. The surface remains a big worry but she gets to race off a 5lb lower mark back on turf and drops in grade.

Won three races over this trip on fast ground in 2018 including here. Now 6lb lower than the last of them. Ran some decent races since while finding life tougher off revised mark. Should be better for two runs back and leading player down in grade.

9/2
Has proved consistent since last July and while she does most of her racing at Yarmouth, she is suited by these conditions. 3lb higher than sole win but could be competitive down in class.

Three-time winner but remains high in the handicap at 4lb higher than her win over this C&D in August. Not disgraced but not at her best in two starts this year and more required.

Beaten favourite at Doncaster after some below par efforts on the fibresand. Well handicapped at 8lb lower than sole AW win, down in grade and conditions suit. However needs to turnaround her recent form.

Forecasts

Javelin (11/4), Princess Keira (9/2), Alba Del Sole (5/1), Quick Recovery (11/2), Porto Ferro (6/1), Tundra (13/2), Exceedingly Diva (9/1), Mercers (25/1)

Verdict

Javelin remains on the upgrade and in this class and off this mark she'll be popular, however the ground does pose a question. In contrast PORTO FERRO has her ideal conditions and should be spot on following a couple of outings. Princess Keira is another down in grade and remains reliable.
  1. Porto Ferro
  2. Princess Keira
  3. Javelin
