7/2
Often starts slowly. Back on the up when successful in first-time visor over 7f here last time. Manner of that victory suggests she'll go close off 4 lb higher, though the potential for a steadily-run race tempers confidence.

9/2
Won twice on the all-weather this spring. Posted string of fine placed efforts prior to finishing well held in higher grade at Newmarket last time. Bounce back looks likely on return to calmer waters, and he merits serious consideration.

9/1
Successful in C&D classified event during productive 2025. Given a break since quiet spell on all-weather in the spring, and he isn't totally discounted returning to a track where he's 1-1.

4/5
Off the mark in smooth style in big-field handicap at Doncaster last month. Only picked off by a more-patiently ridden rival when bidding to follow up at Pontefract. Fourth has franked that form and she may well resume winning ways.

Forecasts

Melissa Honey (4/5), Bridget's Baby (3/1), Moonhall Lass (7/2), Elvetham (9/2), Due Date (9/1), Great Success (16/1), Rianka (33/1)

Verdict

MELISSA HONEY looks as good as ever, and she gets the vote in an open-looking finale. Elvetham and Moonhall Lass should be in the mix, with unexposed Bridget's Baby not discounted.
