2 wins from 5 runs this year. Didn't need to improve to win 10-runner minor event at Kenilworth (5.5f, good, 5/1) 23 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter.

C&D winner. Latest win here in January. 12¼ lengths eighth of 9 to Bye Bye Bombshell in listed race at this course (9.9f, good, 25/2) 77 days ago. Significantly back down in trip. Difficult ask.

Forecasts

Glacier Gold (5/2), Fly My Flag (11/4), La Folie Douce (4/1), Franca (9/1), Green Light Gal (11/1), Purple Merchant (16/1), Gillian Anne (18/1), Miss Nibbles (20/1), Say When (20/1), Sound Check (25/1), Herrin (28/1), Sweet The Sound (33/1)

Verdict

FRANCA should be thereabouts but it promises to be touch and go. Miss Nibbles is put forward as the best option for the forecast, while Fly My Flag is perhaps the most interesting other runner in the line up.
