Three wins in a productive 2025 and ought to be closer to form following her comeback sixth of 15 at Pontefract last time.

As good as ever when landing a 12-runner handicap at Catterick earlier this month but failed to back that up by a long chalk at Thirsk last time.

Bounced back to form when successful at Southwell (33/1) last time, and while she can be competitive off 3 lb higher, her overall profile suggests she's worth opposing for win purposes.

Off the mark in refitted blinkers at Beverley in September. Didn't go through the race with the same fluency when sixth of 10 at Catterick the following month, and the break is likely to have benefitted on that evidence.

Has shaped better than the result both starts since winning a classified stakes at Newcastle, and while this is only her second handicap start on turf, her overall strike rate (1-21) is modest.

Badly out of sorts on the all-weather of late, and it's hard to be confident of a revival, even with Silvestre De Sousa taking over.

Quirky sort wasn't disgraced when fourth of 13 in a slightly higher grade at Pontefract on reappearance and cannot be totally discounted.

Extended a long losing run when well held in a Newcastle handicap last November, though he returns on a career-low mark and can go well fresh.

Yet to win a handicap but she finished a close third (behind a subsequent winner) at Catterick last time and merits consideration in a similar event.

Inconsistent maiden had plenty go wrong when trailing the field in a Newcastle maiden last November. Mark continues to fall and looks worth a go in a first-time hood on his return.

Wasn't disgraced when fifth of 9 at Wolverhampton, though needs more on return to turf, if she's to add to her sole previous success.

Winner in Jersey on final start for Martin Dunne and shaped better than the result when fourth of 12 on first crack over a sprint trip on reappearance/stable debut at Wolverhampton (6f). Looks potentially well treated for trainer who has made a good start to his career.

Forecasts

Auntie Jo (7/2), No Gain (9/2), Opal Storm (13/2), Doralee (8/1), Masterclass (8/1), Vault Of Heaven (17/2), Golden Prosperity (9/1), Beerwah (10/1), Trust Sergei (10/1), Canaria Queen (12/1), Anglesey Lad (12/1), Thank The Lord (18/1), Newyorkstateofmind (25/1), Isla Bella (33/1), Tilsworth Ony Ta (33/1), Ziva's Star (50/1), Lil Wade (80/1)

Verdict

NO GAIN could be on a handy mark for her emerging yard, and she gets the vote in a competitive handicap. Anglesey Lad seeks an elusive first win but looks well-treated, while Doralee wasn't far behind a next-time-out winner on her reappearance.
