Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: Liam Keniry| T: P R Chamings| OR: 69

11/2

Beaten over 10-length when fourth at Lingfield (1m2f; soft) last time. Dropped 3lb for that but is quite inconsistent and must give weight away to all her rivals. Others seem a bit more convincing.

Form: 599-204

Kachumba⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: A Kirby| T: Rae Guest| OR: 67| CD

5/2

Three-time C&D winner who is now only 1lb above last winning mark which was achieved over this C&D. Below-par when she failed to land a blow at this track last week, but had been running consistently well before that so worth another chance.

Form: 47-4338

Momentarily⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Callum Shepherd| T: M R Channon| OR: 63

3/1

Was beaten six-and-a-half-length into third at this track over 1m last week. That was an improved showing upon recent efforts though, and she holds claims off an unchanged mark if able to build upon that run. Drops back in trip.

Form: 327-773

Global Rose¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Cieren Fallon⁽⁵⁾| T: Miss Gay Kelleway| OR: 58

9/1

Seasonal return was uninspiring but she did need her first run last year. Went on to finish runner-up three times in a row at this stage of the season after that so she could put in a much more improved showing.

Desert Lantern⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: F Norton| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 65

11/4

0-10 but did show much more promise when third at Wolverhampton (7f; standard) last week. Must translate that form to turf but no obvious reason why that can't be done and she is likely to play a major role if doing so.

Form: 7-70703

Summer Angel³

Age: 4| Weight: 8-9| J: Theodore Ladd⁽⁵⁾| T: M Appleby| OR: 45

16/1

Been in woeful form of late and showed no signs of turning things around when 11th of 14 at Leicester (1m; good to firm) last time. Competes off a lowly mark, but cannot be recommended.

Form: 6690-00

Plenty of the runners in this field are struggling for form at present. Despite not having a chance with the winner when third at this track last time, Momentarily must hold fair claims if able to build upon that run as that was an improved showing upon the level she had been running to previously. Course specialist Kachumba is also worth a mention. She posted a below-par run last time, but was third here prior to that and has scored three times over C&D. The selection is DESERT LANTERN though, who put in a vastly improved showing when third on the AW last time and if able to back that up, could well break her maiden duck at the 11th attempt.
