15/2
10/3, creditable third of 10 in handicap at Nottingham (6.1f, heavy), helped by being held up in strongly-run race. Off 142 days but sure to be in the mix if resuming in similar form.

16/1
C&D winner who bounced back to her best in first-time cheekpieces when successful at Kempton in January. Easy to forgive last week's run at Kempton having been badly hampered soon after start and remains of interest.

Forecasts

Billyjoh (11/10), Gulliver (5/1), Northern Spirit (15/2), Evocative Spark (10/1), Hiatus (10/1), Grenham Bay (14/1), Starshiba (14/1), She's Centimental (16/1), Seven Brothers (22/1), Sluzewiec (100/1)

Verdict

SHE'S CENTIMENTAL was the worst affected by the early scrimmaging at Wolverhampton last week and still looks attractively handicapped based on her win at Kempton the previous month, so is well worth another chance. Billyjoh shaped as if still in good form on his most recent outing and looks sure to go well again, with the returning Northern Spirit completing the shortlist.
