7/1

Mixed form in 5f handicaps, winning a modest 5f handicap (field of 5) at Wolverhampton (3/1) 11 days ago, going on entering the straight and always holding on. Player if reproducing that under a penalty.

17/2

Won at Chelmsford (5f AW) in January and showed similar form with a 2nd there in June. Finished 11th of 12 in handicap at Windsor (11/1) 24 days ago, never threatening from a wide draw. Returns to AW on a workable mark.

Form: 6-17240

12/1

Inconsistent before winning a classified event (field of 6) at Lingfield (6f) in blinkers (22/1) 64 days ago. Unproven at this shorter 5f trip.

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Paddy Bradley| T: S Dow| OR: 51| CD

10/1

Won at this C&D 64 days ago but ninth of 13 in handicap at Lingfield over 7f (12/1) 9 days ago, never making an impression. Back down to her preferred shorter trip.

Form: 351289

Sugar Kane^t¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: S De Sousa| T: D & C Kubler| OR: 45

5/2

Yet to win in 7 starts but ran her best race to date when fourth of 8 in handicap at Brighton (14/1) 15 days ago, making the running before tiring in the final furlong. Worth a try at this drop in trip given leading tendency.

Form: 95-8464

Forecasts

Ancient State (5/4), Sugar Kane (5/2), Flicka's Girl (7/1), Love Rock (17/2), Apple's Angel (10/1), Sarabi (12/1), Off The Bench (25/1)

FLICKA'S GIRL capitalised on a falling mark to resume winning ways at Wolverhampton and can defy a penalty if turning up in similar form. Love Rock returns to the all-weather on a workable mark, while Ancient State will appreciate the drop back in trip.
