Ascona Ladies Fashion And Style Handicap

Yet to score and addition of cheekpieces failed to provide a spark at Southwell last time. Now tried in blinkers.

Scored over this trip at Musselburgh last autumn but dropped down the weights after proving disappointing since. Tried in first-time visor at Beverley latest and still going well when denied a clear passage at the business end. Interesting contender.

Just poor form at best in 4 runs to date, including tried in low-grade handicap at Southwell latest.

Ex-Irish filly who has improved for the switch to Mark Loughnane and gained a first win in Leicester handicap (7f) last month. Not in same form at Lingfield since but must enter calculations here.

Back to best form, in first-time blinkers, when creditable fourth of 8 in handicap (28/1) over C&D (good) 17 days ago, having run of race. Claims if building on that.

Yet to trouble the judge after 8 attempts and arrives on the back of a poor run at Haydock 13 days ago.

Posted career best when narrowly winning 12-runner handicap at Windsor (1m, good to soft) in June. Just 2 lb higher now and must enter calculations.

Run creditably all 3 starts this season, latest when third of 13 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, good) 87 days ago. Looks worth another crack at this longer trip and is one for the shortlist.

Arrives in good form, latest when respectable third of 8 in handicap at Salisbury (5f, good, 5/2) 31 days ago. Return to this longer trip ought to suit and is not taken lightly.

Best effort this term when third in Leicester handicap (7f) last month but not been in quite same form since. 1 lb out of the weights. Others more appealing.

Made her first real impact when fourth over shorter trip at Carlisle in June but failed to repeat that effort at Chepstow last time. 1 lb out of the handicap. Best watched.

Has shown only temperament in 3 starts to date and is hard to recommend on switch to handicapping from out of the weights.
