9/2
Found run of creditable efforts coming to a halt upped in trip/in a first-time tongue tie when well-beaten ninth of 10 at Sandown (1¼m, good) just under a fortnight ago. Dropped back to a sprint trip for the first time this year and blinkers are reached for again.

Isn't all that straightforward but has ability and got off the mark at the fourth time of asking making handicap debut in 7-runner event at Epsom (6f, good to firm) 12 days ago, knuckling down well at the business end. Capable of better again provided she becomes more professional with racing.

Got off the mark in 7f maiden at Kempton in January and in good nick sent handicapping since, third of 10 at Doncaster (7f) early last month. Very well backed but shaped as if amiss at latter track last time so hard to know what to expect in first-time cheekpieces.

Havana Grey filly who seemingly improved when eighth of 12 in novice at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) a couple of months ago, though had the run of things. Drops back to 6f for her handicap bow and she'll need to take another step forward to feature.

Successful 5 times last year (including over C&D) but has taken a while to find her form this campaign, going like the best horse at the weights with a claimer up for the first time this season when second of 10 at Salisbury (6f) 17 days ago. Very well treated if able to back that up here.

Arrives at the top of her game having won 2 of her last 4 starts, always up against it in a modestly-run affair having made a mess of the start when third of 4 at Leicester (6f, good to firm) just under a fortnight ago. Can get back on track here.

Forecasts

Thunderous Love (15/8), Sugar Sugar (7/2), Come On Eibhlin (9/2), Melissa Honey (5/1), Seeing Stars (5/1), Sweet Desire (40/1)

Verdict

THUNDEROUS LOVE went like the best horse at the weights when runner-up at Salisbury last month (went for home a long way out in a strongly-run race) so Jonathan Portman's mare is fancied to make amends reunited with her usual pilot at the chief expense of Sugar Sugar, who isn't straightforward but made a winning handicap bow at Epsom recently. Melissa Honey rounds off the shortlist.
