3 wins from 10 runs this year. Latest win at Chepstow in August. 13/2, respectable fourth of 14 in handicap at Kempton (8f) 28 days ago, better placed than most. Can make presence felt.

2/1
2 wins from 5 runs this year. Latest win at Ascot in July. 7/1, improved again when second of 12 in handicap at Goodwood (8f, good to firm) 67 days ago. Makes tapeta debut. Going the right way now and should give another good account.

Yet to win a handicap but shaped as if still in good form when fifth of 12 at Newmarket (8f, good) 14 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.

Five wins from 18 Flat runs. 17/2 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, career best when winning 10-runner handicap at this C&D 26 days ago, overcoming pace bias. Shortlist material.

Awarded the race in the stewards' room when winning 6-runner maiden at Pontefract (8f, good to firm) 16 days ago. That effort represented a career best and she's respected now handicapping.

In hood, sixth of 9 in handicap (12/1) at Salisbury (14.2f, heavy). Off 12 months. Significantly down in trip. Makes tapeta debut. First run for yard after leaving Freddie & Martyn Meade. Others make greater appeal.

16/1
Found improvement when getting off the mark at Pontefract (8f) in July. Couldn't replicate front-running tactics from a wide draw when last of 12 in handicap (8/1) at Ayr (7.2f, good to firm) 14 days ago and may face pressure for the lead here.

Forecasts

Surveyor (2/1), Lady Of Arabia (11/4), Zenjabeela (7/2), With Style (9/1), Valkyrian (9/1), Cloudy Skye (16/1), Lincoln Legacy (16/1), Ashtanga (80/1)

Verdict

LADY OF ARABIA did well to overhaul handily-ridden rivals to get off the mark over C&D last month and is fancied to follow up. Surveyor is going the right way now and should be involved again on the back of a good second at Goodwood, whilst With Style produced an improved performance when awarded the race at Pontefract 2 weeks ago and starts out in handicaps from a workable mark.
