10/1

On a long losing run (last win here 4 years ago) and not looked like ending it this season, sixth of 16 in handicap (25/1) at Newbury (13.3f, good to soft) 81 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals.

Miss Tiki^p¹⁴

13/2

Cheekpieces on for 1st time, career best when winning 5-runner handicap at Brighton (11.9f, good to firm, 13/2) 14 days ago, making all unchallenged. Up 5 lb but similar tactics could pay off.

17/2

C&D winner. 5/1, career best when winning 5-runner handicap at this course (11.6f, firm) 15 days ago, rallied to lead once more near post. No banker to back that up.

Trappy fare with LADY ELYSIA chanced dropping back markedly in grade. Her last 3 wins have come here and she didn't run too badly in a class 2 a fortnight ago. Miss Tiki made all in good style at Brighton and could be a big player if let loose again. Turn of Phrase, seeking a first victory, is also respected.
