Failed to back up the promise of her debut effort when only sixth at Newcastle (7f; standard) in February. Now returns from 154-day break and this is her first run on turf. Needs to bounce back but has place claims on form of debut second.

Due Diligence filly who starts out at a low level and looks a nice type on paper. Half-sister to three winners including the useful Bear Force One. Wouldn't need to be a superstar to have a say. Market check strongly advised.

Unfancied (sent off 40-1) and was subsequently never involved on debut at Wolverhampton (1m; standard) when seventh of nine. Difficult to make any sort of case for on that evidence and she can be readily opposed for the time being.

Makes her turf debut but has shown more than enough promise on either of her two starts over 7f/1m to suggest she can win a race as weak as this. Holds comfortably the best form on offer and is the one to beat.

Six-race maiden who produced a below-par effort when last seen at Windsor (1m2f; good to firm) when stepped up in trip. 3lb lower and return to 1m will suit. Place claims at best given minor promise shown in handicaps.

Verdict

This is a modest race and surely a golden opportunity for LEHWAIYLA to get off the mark at the third time of asking. The selection has represented herself well in a pair of decent maiden/novice contests on the AW and can make a winning transition to turf in this much weaker assignment. The sole newcomer in the field is Bear Attraction and it would be no surprise to see her play a leading role in this on debut, given she looks a nice enough type on paper. Meanwhile, both Arju and Populair can fight it out for the placings, with the former narrowly preferred despite the fact she disappointed last time as she retains more potential than the latter.
