Form & Verdict

Two wins this year (one over C&D) but it's been a topsy-turvy season and she could not justify support at Catterick on Tuesday when only fifth of eight; others have more obvious claims.

J: Jason Hart

T: Tracy Waggott

Three of her four wins have come at this track including a game win over 1m (good) 18 days ago; that was in a tight three-way finish but a 2lb rise looks fair and this drop back in trip is no problem; key player.

Equally effective at 7f and 1m; made all on this course in August and has run creditably since, most recently in blinkers (cheekpieces back on today); one of two runners for Liam Bailey; unlikely to be far away.

J: Paul Mulrennan

T: Liam Bailey

Front-runner; snapped a two-plus year barren spell when accounting for a stablemate (Onthebunny fourth) in a 7f classified stakes here in August; respectable since, going under by a neck over C&D (Believe Me Now sixth) a fortnight ago; Paul Mulrennan aboard for the first time.

T: Liam Bailey

Often leads; both wins over 7f on turf, the latest in August, and he only just lost out back at Musselburgh (1m) ten days ago; has something to prove on recent AW efforts, the latest more than a year ago, but he had course form earlier in his career so there's a case to be made.

Only sixth behind Little Ted here last month, and that was a third below-par run on the trot; slipping in the weights but needs a revival.

Has ordinary strike-rate of 3-57 but his last win came at this track in May and he was a creditable fourth back here (1m, good) 11 days ago; hasn't run over this trip for a long time but he has possibilities if he can repeat his latest form; acts on fast and soft ground.

Form & Verdict

Has won four times at up to 1m5f; unplaced so far this year, but he caught the eye on his second outing and blew the start last time; may be ideally suited by further than 1m but he's dangerously well handicapped and market support would be significant.
