7/2
Won a 5f maiden here 12 months ago but she has looked summed up by her mark in handicaps this year. Change of headgear and now tries 7f for the first time since debut.

7/2
By a sprinter/out of a stayer and made an encouraging start when second of 5 in Yarmouth maiden. Didn't have to improve on that when landing the odds at Lingfield (turf) 17 days ago, still showing signs of greenness. Remains with potential now handicapping.

Resumed winning ways returned to a winning mark over C&D 12 days ago, settling better than is often the case. However, he was seemingly favoured by the stands rail that day and now has a career-high rating to defy.

Confirmed debut promise at second time of asking when scoring with something to spare in a C&D maiden last month. However, she has been tailed off in handicaps since so has plenty to prove now.

11/4
Improved appreciably on previous handicap form to belatedly get off the mark at Doncaster 17 days ago, relishing his first crack at 7f (well on top at the finish). Should have more to offer at this trip so could well defy a 7 lb rise.

Dream Ahead filly (half-sister to yard's useful Dr Strangelove) who made the most of a good opportunity at Bath 18 days ago. Opening mark demands more but return to 7f will suit.

Can be wayward (tends to hang) but has managed to win twice at this track this summer. Quickly back to form here (1m) 9 days ago but this is a stronger race than he needs to contest.

Forecasts

Von Trotter (11/4), Espona Bay (7/2), Evie Ross (7/2), Rogue Exile (7/2), Honky Tonk Girl (8/1), Too Much Trevor (9/1), Name The Day (40/1)

Verdict

VON TROTTER relished this extra distance when off the mark in clear-cut fashion at Doncaster and he looks capable of defying a 7 lb rise. Handicap debutant Rogue Exile is a potential improver so rates the main threat ahead of Honky Tonk Girl.
