Consistent and game mare, gives it her best shot every time and winner of two of her last four; found winner had flown at Lingfield last time but still ran on well for second; new high mark has kicked in now, so she needs more, but she'll try.
Poor effort at Thirsk last time easily forgiven, as she's much better on the all-weather and her C&D record reads 20122; probably not a lot of room for manouevre off this mark but a better effort can be expected all the same.
Not a lot to shout about in her six starts to date, and she looks one of the yard's lesser lights at this stage; seems a bit tripless at present too, may be that a strong-run 6f is what she needs but she's not certain to get that here. Risky.
Couple of runner-up spots on the turf last autumn suggested she'd be up to winning a race or two, but since then she's gome backwards in a major way, last in two further starts and looked awkward at Leicester last time; needs to get back on track.
One win in seven starts, that coming over 5f at Musselburgh last September. Has changed yards since and ran well on debut for Julie Camacho here over 5f last month, looking ready for a crack at this sixth furlong; worth consideration.
C&D winner on debut but hasn't progressed, and was readily held in two starts last month; hopes pinned on a return to a track she clearly likes and a first time tongue-tie to work the oracle, but she comes with a degree of risk now.
Sprang a 16-1 surprise when scoring at Newcastle in October but some pretty modest efforts other than that only highlight her inconsistency, and she was never in the hunt at Beverley on reappearance, sent off 100-1; others make more appeal.
Wasn't finishing her races off with any gusto but turned that all around with an easy win in a first time tongue-tie at Lingfield (6f) last week, thrashing them 6½l; possible she raced on the best part of the track but was impressive all the same.
Forecasts
Spurofthemoment (8/11), Charming Spirit (7/2), Little Red Socks (10/1), Shepherds Way (10/1), Kath's Lustre (11/1), Klopp (14/1), Holloa (33/1), Strawberry Hind (40/1)
Klopp goes well at the track but has had 18 tries in Class 5 company and been beaten in them all, so may need a drop in class before she gets on the scoresheet. SPUROFTHEMOMENT looked a different horse when equipped with a tongue-tie at Lingfield last week and although she may have been advantaged by racing near the stands rail (often the place to be), she was impressive nonetheless and can follow up under a penalty here. Kath's Lustre doesn't know how to run a bad one and should be there at the business end, and Shepherds Way can improve for this step up in trip.
