Progressive daughter of Sioux Nation who got off the mark in 11-runner maiden at Newcastle (6f) 17 days ago. Tongue tied for her handicap debut and expected to be bang there with few miles still on the clock.

Well supported and bounced back to winning ways in 11-runner handicap at Kempton (6f) 11 days ago, comfortably making all. A likely player under a 5 lb penalty.

Bagged a fifth C&D success in January and largely in good nick since, sixth of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (5f) 16 days ago. Can't be discounted from an easing mark.

Forecasts

Seven Fires (11/8), Early Release (4/1), Street Life (11/2), Woodhay Whisper (13/2), Shalaa Asker (7/1), Hover On The Wind (15/2), Irish Dancer (17/2), Dark Side Prince (12/1), Popular Dream (14/1)

Jack Channon's low-mileage filly SEVEN FIRES advanced her form when opening her account at Newcastle recently and can take another step forward on her handicap debut to follow up here. Shalaa Asker is next on the list on the back of a good C&D second, while Kempton scorer Early Release is also firmly in the picture under a 5 lb penalty.
