2/5
Yet to win but has made the frame on all three starts, including when going close on her recent handicap debut at Pontefract (1m4f, good). Should be very competitive from the same mark if acting on this slower ground.

Sole win came over 7f on Wolverhampton's Tapeta last November, when 3lb lower. Has shown himself to be competitive from similar marks to this since, but hasn't converted that into another win, so needs to raise the bar.

Not devoid of ability based on her four starts at up to 1m2f, but at the same time has yet to be a major threat. Drops 3lb and could be better suited by this distance, so not written off.

Has shown a glimmer of the ability to win minor races, but was well held on her recent reappearance/handicap debut at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) and needs a marked improvement on that from just 3lb lower. Trip not certain to suit.

8/1
Yet to make the frame in five starts and has rarely threatened even to do that. Handicap mark already on the slide after just two attempts, and blinkers go on for this, but he was a disappointing favourite last time. Plenty to prove.

Forecasts

My Girl Maggie (2/5), King's Charisma (7/4), Richard R H B (13/2), Our Girl Sheila (15/2), Maximilius (8/1), Critique (10/1), Dancing Approach (11/1), East End Girl (12/1), Queen Of Camelot (14/1), Girl From Mars (20/1)

Verdict

Critique could go close here if acting as well on turf as has been the case away from it, while My Girl Maggie and Our Girl Sheila are both of interest. However, the manner in which KING'S CHARISMA dismissed his field at Redcar over the weekend suggests that he should be up to defying a 6lb penalty now up again in trip.
