IS SHE NOW can make it 3-3 since joining current connections. Last-time-out winner Elemental Eye has a solid chance at the weights, while Annandale is respected in his bid for a fourth C&D success.

Verdict
Versatile sort. Landed a gamble over C&D last month before making it 2-2 for current yard at Musselburgh (again well backed) 6 days ago. Manner of that victory suggests she could defy a 4-lb penalty to land a hat-trick.

Verdict
Three-time C&D winner got off the mark for the year at Hamilton last month. Wasn't seen to best effect when bidding to follow up there 11 days ago, and he could get back on track with Paul Mulrennan returning.

Verdict
Capitalised on a falling mark decisively in first-time blinkers at Newcastle 9 days ago. Has been found a thin race for the grade and should go well again off 6 lb higher.

Verdict
Relatively lightly-raced 3-y-o. Below form at Doncaster latest following a positive start in handicaps. Probably worth another chance given her profile/connections.

Verdict
C&D winner. Underlined why he's on a long losing run with a wayward effort when third here (15f, soft) last time. Worth another go in blinkers on that evidence.

Landed a double here last autumn. Stepped forward from reappearance with fourth at this course (15f, soft) latest, but she seems to find her best form later in the season.

Verdict
Lightly-raced maiden only hinted at ability last year. On the retreat when wiped out at Wolverhampton (8.5f) second time up this season. Markedly longer trip a step into the unknown (more of a miler on pedigree).
