6/5

Lower in the weights on grass but much more like it when a close second of 5 in a handicap at Nottingham (10/1) over this trip 7 days ago, beaten just a short-head. Looks primed to break turf maiden soon and has the same mark here.

Form: 1-57472

7/2

Won a handicap here over 7f (6/1) in April but finished last of 11 in handicap at Doncaster over 7f (16/1) 3 weeks later, reportedly lame. Cheekpieces removed back from a break and now goes up in trip.

Form: 8/5810

6/4

Down to a basement mark and cashed in at this venue (7f) 21 days ago, leading close home. Return to 1m no issue and she should be a factor again.

Forecasts

Starshiba (6/5), Heer's Sadie (6/4), Stella Hogan (7/4), Marmoga (7/2), Strategia (7/1)

STARSHIBA came within a short-head of victory at Nottingham last week and looks set to break his turf maiden after 24 unsuccessful attempts. Heer's Sadie bounced back to form with a win at this course 21 days ago and she can be a factor again. Stella Hogan is a danger if transferring AW form to grass.
