Left two poor efforts behind when shaping better on heavy ground here in first time blinkers (retained). Down 4lb and gets a welcome drop in class while the lesser distance may also help. Could go well.

Suited by much faster ground and ran poorly the last twice on good to soft. These conditions unlikely to help and others preferred.

Had been running to a consistent level so her latest AW run was very disappointing. Dropping in the handicap again with a first time hood applied, however she was pulled out of a heavy ground contest since due to the conditions.

Broke through in good style on fast ground over this trip at Lingfield and can be forgiven follow up effort after being hampered at the start. Still has more to offer off this mark but ground an obvious query.

Eight-race maiden was below par the last twice, including over this C&D on heavy ground and now cheekpieces added. Needs to find extra despite falling mark and plenty to find with Dutch Story.

C&D winner on fast ground in August but raised the bar again when denied here by a neck on heavy ground. Showed a determined attitude in defeat and likely has more to offer again in similar conditions. Leading contender.

Won this race last year off 1lb lower but on much faster ground and she's avoided these conditions in the past. Needs to lift on recent form and others preferred.

11-timer winner has fallen to a good mark but has generally been suited by better ground in recent years. Out of form on recent efforts and others look more likely candidates.

On a high enough mark at present and proving inconsistent. Drop in trip a plus but didn't look suited by heavy ground here last time.

Mark has plummeted since her last win in 2017 and she is suited by testing conditions, however she'd need to raise her game and a testing 7f may be too stamina sapping.

12-race maiden has produced nothing worthwhile yet. Races from 1lb out of the handicap and easy to dismiss once again.

Forecasts

Dutch Story (10/11), Agent Of Fortune (7/1), Hi Ho Silver (7/1), Spencers Son (11/1), Reasoned (12/1), Ocean Temptress (18/1), Kodiac Lass (20/1), Confrerie (22/1), Soaring Spirits (28/1), Princess Florence (28/1), Bevsboy (66/1)

Verdict

Spencers Son was back to form in similar conditions at this track last time and has a lot going for him. Narrow preference is for DUTCH STORY who produced a clear career-best over this C&D last time and is another who has improved for meeting heavy ground. Hi Ho Silver is one very much to stay on the right side of although the conditions are a concern.
  1. Dutch Story
