Made a winning return from 6 months off at Beverley (8.5f) 2 weeks ago, finding an end product to go with her usual smooth-travelling ways. Unexposed at 1m and still looks well treated from 3 lb higher mark if in same form switched back to all-weather.

Raced freely when only fifth on her handicap debut in January before finishing third of 9 in a 7f maiden at Chelmsford a month later, shaping as if the drop in trip was against her. Return to 1m will suit and she's not one to write off given pedigree/connections.

9/2
Yet to win a handicap in 15 races and her third of 6 at Wolverhampton in January on latest outing was just a respectable effort. However, handicapper has given her some help and she now finds herself in 0-70 company for the first time. Cheekpieces replace visor.

Absent since only seventh of 10 in a handicap over C&D in October. Has been unpredictable for current yard and it is hard to know what to expect on the back of a recent breathing operation.

Free-going sort who was only seventh of 9 at Kempton making stable debut on return from 4 months off 23 days ago. Entitled to come for the outing but looks best watched.

Twice a winner over C&D, most recently in March. Had excuses when sixth of 8 here 24 days ago and this strong-travelling sort can prove much more of a threat this time around.

Ended last year on a high, recording back-to-back wins at Newcastle in November. However, her form has gone the wrong way this year and others make more appeal.

Runner-up in maiden here in 2024 before 17-month absence. Stable in good form right now but there wasn't much promise to be taken from either start this year.

Returned with improved effort when sixth of 10 on handicap debut at Beverley 14 days ago but still didn't shape as if especially well treated and she'll need another step forward.

Forecasts

Wondrous Light (2/1), Dream Illusion (4/1), Donna Nook (9/2), Welljudged (15/2), Brave Byreflection (8/1), Alessia Fernanda (14/1), Special Breeze (16/1), Electric Avenue (16/1), Cosi Bear (25/1)

Verdict

WONDROUS LIGHT proved better than ever when returning from 6 months off with a comfortable success at Beverley 2 weeks ago, and still unexposed at 1m she can follow up. Dream Illusion is a two-time C&D winner who had excuses last time after an awkward start, whilst Welljudged should appreciate the step back up in trip.
