Largely a disappointing sort who remains a maiden after 15 starts. But took a step in the right direction once again when fourth at Wolverhampton (5f) last time. Blinkers could bring more out of him again.

9/4
Not a well-behaved sort and on a long losing streak. Down the field at Dundalk last time but hard to believe this yard have got to the bottom go him and his mark keeps tumbling. One to keep an eye.

Running well in defeat the last twice, finishing second at Southwell before third-placed finish at Lingfield (6f) just under two weeks ago. Those efforts give her leading claims.

Record stands at 1-26 and well-below form so far this term. Another tame effort when sixth in 5f Southwell handicap last time and stepped up in trip in a bid for revival.

Successful over 6f at Wolverhampton last year but largely disappointing since, including down the field here last month. Very much best watched on recent form.

Course winner in the past, with last win coming here in April. Largely inconsistent since and was a poor sixth at this track (5f) two days ago. Severe bounce back is required.

8/1
Losing run since last victory stands at 28 and not showing great signs of that changing. Latest down the field effort at Southwell (6f) leaves a lot to be desired in this field.

Remains a maiden after four starts with best effort coming at Chepstow in September. Not as good in two starts since and may have a bit to find in this company despite lenient opening mark.

One win from 33 flat runs and 22 efforts since that victory. Recently turned out when eighth of nine (5f) here two days ago. Form book makes her off-putting.

Forecasts

Griggy (15/8), Captain Power (9/4), N Over J (5/1), Meshardal (8/1), Kyllukey (8/1), Sugar Plum Fairy (10/1), Spenny's Lass (11/1), Madame Ritz (12/1), Tilsworth Rose (12/1), Swiper (14/1), Nananita (14/1), Alba Del Sole (16/1), Plum Duff (25/1), Hurricane Heidi (50/1)

Verdict

A poor renewal with cases difficult to find, preference is for TILSWORTH ROSE, who backed up her recent encouraging effort with a good second at Lingfield last time. This course may suit her better and has a good opportunity to get her victory. Sugar Plum Fairy sneaks in at the bottom of the weights and the hood may just help her case this time around, while the likes of top weight Griggy and Captain Power could run on for a place but need to dismiss some recent poor efforts.
  1. Tilsworth Rose
