16/1
Showed some ability on debut when 2½L fifth of nine at Kempton (7f, AW) last September, although was not as good at Chelmsford (1m, AW) next time. Since gelded and not badly treated on handicap debut, so check the market for clues.

9/1
Showed promise on his first two outings at Ripon (1m, soft) and Thirsk (7f, good), but was a disappointing favourite when last seen at Ayr in October. Initial mark stiff enough, but can't rule out improvement on handicap debut.

Showed improved form to win on a Newcastle novice event (7f, AW) on his third start last October. Well held under a penalty back there next time. Initial mark looks a little on the stiff side based on what we have seen.

Showed a bit of improvement on his debut effort to score second time at Southwell (7f) in November. Has been inconsistent since and unable to improve on that win. Drops 2lb for turf debut. Not written off but vulnerable to less exposed opponents.

Showed promise on both starts last season, improving second time when upped to 7f at Leicester. Acts on good to soft. Step up to 1m ought to suit, and she should be capable of being competitive from this initial mark.

Stepped up on his debut effort when scoring at Lingfield (1m) last August, when with Archie Watson. Unable to get close to that level in three starts for this trainer, but there was encouragement in last week's reappearance. Cheekpieces go on.

Went close in a Chepstow nursery (6f, good; first-time cheekpieces) last September and improved on that over 7f at Kempton next time. Off the boil since, and others make more appeal for win purposes.

Not without promise on debut at Newbury (6½f, heavy) in October, but was below that level when a beaten favourite on his only other start. Since gelded and has been allotted a tough initial mark here. Step up in trip looks positive.

33/1
Got off the mark at the sixth attempt in a Kempton nursery (1m, AW) last October, and ran to the same level under 6lbs more back there next time. Since gelded and resumes up 2lb. Not ruled out, but needing a bit of improvement.

Age: 3|  Weight: 9-3| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: R Hannon| OR:  71

Has been competitive on several occasions, but remains a maiden after seven starts. Acts on soft, but still has a bit to prove over a mile and needs some improvement to defy this mark.

Showed promise on debut, but has been unable to improve on that Haydock effort (6f, soft) in three subsequent starts. Step up in trip may well help her to find some improvement and she is not badly treated here. Interesting.

Forecasts

Woodhouse (11/8), Risk Taker (4/1), Manzo Duro (9/1), Anfield Girl (11/1), Spantik (11/1), Willa (12/1), Jam And Mam (12/1), Turn On The Charm (16/1), Broken Rifle (20/1), Blake's Vision (22/1), Precision Storm (33/1), Wadi Al Salaam (40/1)

Verdict

Not an easy race to call and the suggestion is ANFIELD GIRL, who may be able to kick on again in handicaps, having been upped in trip, and looks better treated than most of her opponents on what we have seen so far. Spantik could prove to be a danger, along with Woodhouse and Jam And Mam. Other potential improvers include Risk Taker, Turn On The Charm and Manzo Duro, so check the market for any confidence.
