6/1

Career best when winning 8-runner minor event (10/1) at Salisbury (9.9f, good) 37 days ago, well positioned. 3 lb rise fair enough and she's not without hope.

Lightly-raced winner. Tongue strap on for 1st time, sixth of 9 in handicap at this course (8.3f, good to firm, 66/1) 11 days ago, having run of race. Back up in trip and he has work to do.

11/4

Lightly-raced maiden. Good second of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, heavy, 6/4) 16 days ago. Evidently going the right way and he has to enter calculations.

3/1

9/2, fifth of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, good to firm) 30 days ago, racing closer to pace than ideal. Needs a couple of these to falter.

14/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 25/1, fifth of 15 in minor event at Windsor (10f, good) 56 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time for this handicap debut and she's another who needs to improve.

Elevate¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Saffie Osborne⁽⁵⁾| T: H & R Charlton| OR: 65

15/2

Promising individual. Fourth of 8 in maiden at Chelmsford City (10f, 11/1) 18 days ago. One suspects that she will have more to offer now venturing down the handicap route.

10/1

7/2, creditable fourth of 8 in handicap at Hamilton (8.3f, good to firm) 19 days ago. Shapes as though this stiffer test will be in her favour and she should make her presence felt.

Forecasts

Ziggy (11/4), Act Naturally (3/1), Thunderclap (11/2), Komore (6/1), Elevate (15/2), Soller Bay (10/1), Who Cares Wins (12/1), Rodeo Drive (14/1), Sharla (14/1), Myboymax (40/1), Ballycommon (50/1), Pride Of Hawridge (80/1)

The most appealing of these is ELEVATE, who appears to have been brought along very much with handicaps in mind and improvement should be forthcoming now pitched into one off what looks a potentially handy opening mark. Ziggy maintained his theme of race-by-race progress when runner-up on handicap debut at Lingfield. He is feared most ahead of Soller Bay, who should benefit from this stiffer test.
