Low-mileage 4-y-o who arrives on back of excellent second of 10 in handicap at Haydock (10.2f) 12 days ago. Up 2 lb but form has been franked so she holds good prospects of gaining her first win.

Out of sorts on AW in spring, last of 5 in handicap at Southwell when last seen out, but has tumbled in weights so not totally discounted if freshened up after his break.

Not the easiest to predict but (10/1) recorded career best when cosy winner of handicap at Sandown (10f, good) 25 days ago. 6 lb rise demands another step forward here though.

Eleven runs since last win in 2018 and went backwards from good Musselburgh reappearance third when only seventh in handicap (7/1) at Haydock (10.4f) 28 days ago. Bit to prove now.

12f winner on AW at Kempton in February but his recent form is far less encouraging, beating only one in handicap at Windsor (10f, good to firm) 48 days ago. Not easy to make a case for.

Forecasts

Embrace The Moment (4/1), Brown Honey (4/1), Rotherwick (9/2), Zest Of Zambia (6/1), Motawaafeq (7/1), Carey Street (15/2), Croeso Cymraeg (17/2), Sir Canford (9/1), Pioneering (10/1), Lightning Attack (28/1), Zeyzoun (66/1), Muraaqeb (100/1)

Verdict

BROWN HONEY is much less exposed than most of these and her excellent Haydock second suggests strongly she is ready to open her account now. Ian Williams has his string in good nick so in-form Embrace The Moment looks the one to give her most to do, while Rotherwick rates a solid place prospect.
