7 tips

4/7

Comment: Responded well to the fitting of cheekpieces when coming home 5l clear here (2m, good) under Ashley Lewis a week ago; 7lb rise may be manageable given how well she took that race, but drying ground would be a concern (twice a non-runner due to good to firm ground this summer).

Comment: Sole success in 18 starts under rules came at Kempton (2m, AW) last month, but he does act on turf and the form of his latest fifth of eight at Ffos Las (2m, good to soft) is working out quite well; best form would give him a chance.

Comment: Front-runner who scored at Chepstow (5f, good) and over C&D (good to firm) in May; runner-up in three of her four starts since, including at Chester (5f, good) a fortnight ago (two of today's rivals behind); could take some catching if able to bag the stands' rail early.

Comment: Winner of 11 races including at Chepstow (5f, good to soft) and Leicester (5f, good to firm) in June; finished over a length behind Over Spiced when fourth of eight at Chester (5f, good) a fortnight ago, but he didn't see much daylight; should go well.

4/1

Comment: Five wins last year, including one over C&D, and took advantage of a drop in the weights when ending a 14-race losing run at Yarmouth (5f, good; made all) six days ago; has a 5lb penalty to carry and she is likely to face competition for the lead, but respected nonetheless.

Comment: Best form has come on the AW including when comfortably making all in a Chelmsford nursery (5f) a year ago; finished behind two of these returned to turf at Chester (5f, good) a fortnight ago and looks opposable.

Comment: All four wins have come on the AW at Chelmsford including from 2lb lower on his reappearance in May (5f); however, he is 0-26 elsewhere and 0-15 on turf so not hard to have reservations.

Comment: Appeared to be losing her way after winning at Brighton (1m, good to firm) in April, but bounced back with an emphatic success under Ashley Lewis here (7f, good) a week ago; 9lb rise and return to 6f pose questions, but still a major player if in the same mood.

Comment: Best form, including both wins, has come at around 1m; out of the frame in all six starts for this yard, albeit not beaten far at Kempton (7f, AW) in May; drop to this trip didn't make any difference at Epsom last month and best watched for now.
