4/1

Course winner in November but his run of good form came to a halt when eighth of 11 in handicap (9/2) at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 17 days ago. The sort to bounce back though.

La Rochette¹²

9/1

Fourteen runs since her last win in 2024 but she recorded a respectable third of 12 in handicap at this C&D (50/1) 12 days ago. Ought to be in the shake-up.

4/1

C&D winner. Not disgraced in a change of headgear when fourth of 7 in handicap at this C&D 25 days ago on her final run for Ann Duffield. Blinkers are tried for new trainer and needs considering.

Forecasts

Digital (7/4), Azucena (4/1), Em Jay Kay (4/1), He's An Angel (5/1), La Rochette (9/1), Classy Clarets (12/1)

In-form C&D scorer DIGITAL rates just the pick of the sextet at these weights so edges the vote from course winner He's An Angel and La Rochette who is also weighted to have a say. Em Jay Kay can make his presence felt too if shrugging off a lesser effort at Wolverhampton last time out.
