Twelve runs since last win in 2022. 33/1, last of 13 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f) 11 days ago. Hopes pinned on the addition of a visor helping to spark a return to form.

Eleven runs since last win in 2022. Bit below form fifth of 10 in handicap (4/1) at Newcastle (10.2f) 34 days ago, missing break. Definite chance if getting away on terms.

18/1
Thrice-raced maiden. 150/1, first run since leaving Patrick Leech when sixth of 7 in maiden at Leicester (10f, good to soft) 28 days ago, not knocked about. Likely improver now handicapping and one to note in the betting.

Cheekpieces on for 1st time, creditable second of 11 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f, 11/1) 13 days ago, no match for winner. Merits consideration off the same mark here with this step back in trip a likely plus.

5/4, creditable third of 11 in handicap at this course (8.6f) 2 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time and should again be in the mix, provided this doesn't come too soon.

7/2, improved on recent efforts to win 10-runner handicap at this course (8.6f) 20 days ago, always holding on. 2 lb rise fair and she has to be feared.

Forecasts

Island Native (6/5), Storm Asset (4/1), Fast Affair (6/1), Opticality (8/1), Casa Luna (17/2), Balqaa (18/1), Louisiana Bay (18/1), Point Of Fact (25/1), James Bradley (40/1), Tacitus (50/1), Caracristi (80/1), Two Plus Two (100/1)

Verdict

FAST AFFAIR is appealing on the back of an improved effort in first-time cheekpieces (retained here) at Southwell where she chased home the in-form Kalamunda (winner again since). She is taken to go one better back up in trip off the same mark here. Island Native remains a maiden following 10 attempts, but put in another good shift when a close third here on Saturday and will be a threat if turned out again quickly. Opticality and handicap debutante Louisiana Bay are others to consider.
