9/2
Lingfield winner in January beaten 3¼L into third of 10 on handicap bow at Newmarket latest. Same mark here and handicaps here generally easier than at HQ so not ruled out.

Consistent last season until final start (maybe over the top) but returns here against largely race-fit rivals and with little room to manoeuvre handicap-wise.

3/1
Won twice in February on AW over 6f and 7f and excellent second of 12 at Haydock showed the improvement continues on turf. Leading claims despite having an extra 1lb to carry.

4/1
6f Thirsk winner who carried a 5lb penalty when finding one too good over C&D here as favourite. Now up 10lb with revised mark but looks progressive so remains a big player.

Lightly raced filly won a Newcastle novice race in Feb (5f,AW) and excellent second on handicap debut at Lingfield suggests 1lb higher mark here no issue. First time on turf today but still shortlisted.

20/1
Took advantage of an ease in the weights to win over 6f at Brighton in September, and doubled her tally when winning at Wolverhampton in November. Last of 10 at Newmarket on return must be improved upon however.

C&D winner last September far from disgraced when fifth of 14 on return at Newmarket trying 7f and a big player here under a feather weight.

Forecasts

Mountain Brave (3/1), Clever Candy (3/1), Fox Hill (4/1), Portugueseprincess (9/2), Colouring (6/1), Sweet Pursuit (10/1), Lua De Mel (11/1), Lethal Angel (20/1)

Verdict

Quite a few of these fillies and mares have likable claims but three-year-old MOUNTAIN BRAVE gets the nod with her progressive profile typical of one from this stable. In-form Fox Hill is an obvious danger and Clever Candy is also interesting back in trip.
