66/1
Once-raced maiden on Flat. Fifth of 7 in novice (200/1) at Lingfield (11.6f, good) on Flat debut 10 days ago. Hard to warm to on the back of that low-key belated introduction to this sphere.

7/4
Promising type. Won 8-runner novice at Yarmouth (8f, good, 3/1) on sole 2-y-o start in October. Open to plenty of improvement for leading connections and he's high on the shortlist.

15/2
Once-raced winner. Won 8-runner maiden (14/1) at Yarmouth (8f, good to firm) on debut 23 days ago, well on top finish. Likely to improve for this step up in trip and should make her presence felt.

Once-raced winner. 5/1, won 12-runner novice at Southwell (8.1f) on debut in December, overcoming pace bias. Absent since, but she's clearly promising and this step up in trip will likely serve her well.

Once-raced maiden. Second of 5 in novice at Chester (10.3f, good to firm, 5/1) on debut 21 days ago, running on. Likely to improve with that experience to draw upon here.

Once-raced maiden. 16/1, fifth of 6 in novice at Southwell (12.1f) on debut 19 days ago. Probably more one for handicaps further down the line.

8/1
Twice-raced maiden. 13/8, last of 7 in maiden at Haydock (8.2f, good) 63 days ago. Remains of interest in view of the promise she showed on sole 2-y-o start, but she does now have a bit to prove.

Forecasts

Hot Flame (7/4), Aeolian (2/1), Suzette Defoye (9/2), La Scanderbeide (15/2), Participle (8/1), Lothbury (40/1), Potters Marmite (66/1)

Verdict

The well-bred HOT FLAME made the perfect start to her career when landing a 1m Yarmouth novice during the autumn and, with the promise of better to come now faced with a stiffer test, she could be the answer to this intriguing contest. Aeolian was the sole newcomer in the line-up when a promising second in a 5-runner affair at Chester last month and she is second choice ahead of Suzette Defoye and La Scanderbeide.
