Latest win at Ayr in July. Ninth of 12 in handicap (40/1) at Catterick (7f, good to soft) 9 days ago. Seems to have lost her form.
C&D winner. Fourteenth of 17 in handicap (33/1) at York (7f, good to firm) 32 days ago. Shaped well over C&D on his penultimate outing, so can't be written off.
40/1, creditable fourth of 14 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f) 24 days ago, faring best of those held up. Has never won on turf, though.
Eleven runs since last win in 2019. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, good second of 12 in handicap (17/2) at Haydock (6f, good) 15 days ago, sticking to task. Has good chance on form.
Creditable 2¼ lengths fifth of 11 to Oriental Lilly in handicap (22/1) at Ayr (7.2f, good to firm) 43 days ago, merely closing up late. Not threatening to defy his sliding mark.
Respectable fourth of 13 in handicap at Hamilton (8.3f, soft, 11/1) 25 days ago. Arrives in reasonable form and drop in trip should help.
C&D winner. Seventeen runs since last win in 2018. 16/1, creditable second of 10 in handicap at Catterick (7f, good to soft) 9 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Merits consideration.

Forecasts
Bibbidibobbidiboo (5/2), Lady Calcaria (5/2), Gweedore (9/2), Merricourt (9/2), Gigi's Beach (7/1), Donnelly's Rainbow (14/1), Oriental Lilly (14/1), Custard The Dragon (20/1), Gypsy Traveller (20/1), Mi Capricho (50/1), Anniemation (50/1)
LADY CALCARIA dug in for pressure when second in first-time cheekpieces at Haydock last time and, with this longer trip unlikely to pose any issues, she's fancied to go one better under a positive ride from a good draw. Bibbidibobbidiboo was also runner-up recently, so she's respected along with Gigi's Beach, who makes his first start for MIchael Dods.
