Course winner. Latest win here in February. 12/1, last of 5 in minor event at Kempton (16f) 26 days ago. Likely to be back on her game returns to handicap company.

7/1
Career best when winning 4-runner minor event at Lingfield (10f, AW, 9/2) 8 days ago, very much having run of race. Goes up in trip and looks vulnerable under a penalty.

12/1
16/1, first run since leaving Graeme McPherson when fifth of 8 in handicap at Kempton (16f) 22 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Not one to write off.

5/2
Lightly-raced winner. 9/1, good second of 9 in handicap at Nottingham (14f, soft). Off 6 months. Going the right way when last seen and type to do better as a 4yo.

11/2
Creditable second of 6 in handicap (16/1) at Lingfield (12f, AW) 33 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Should be thereabouts once again.

4/1
5/1, last of 6 in handicap at Musselburgh (12.5f, good to firm). Boasts some strong early-season form from last year, and this doesn't look like a particularly strong race.

Course winner. 9/1, last of 9 in handicap at this course (10f) 49 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Others more persuasive.

11/1
Four wins from 11 runs last year. Good third of 13 in handicap at Kempton (16f, 10/3). Off 148 days. First and second from that race have both gone in since, so can't be taken lightly.

Forecasts

Summertime Romance (5/2), Baileys Derbyday (4/1), Koeman (11/2), Trinity Girl (6/1), Bakersboy (7/1), Frankly Mr Shankly (9/1), Yagood (11/1), High Wells (12/1)

Verdict

BAILEYS DERBYDAY was progressive prior to a tame effort to end his 2021 campaign and, while he has a 10-month absence to overcome, he's worth chancing to open his account with the potential for further improvement this term. Summertime Romance is also of interest on seasonal debut and the consistent Yagood is worth considering with his latest form having been boosted.
