STAR OF ALBION went close in a C&D nursery when last seen in September and might be a more solid option than Lovethiswayagain, whose runner-up effort at Redcar on second start was very much a standout in her 4 outings last year.

Fairly useful maiden. Cheekpieces on first time, very good second of 11 in C&D nursery in September. Blinkers are given a go on return. Bold show likely under Marquand.

Verdict
Left debut behind when runner-up in 6f maiden at Redcar (6f) last May but ran well below that level in 2 more turf maidens over the summer. Switches to AW for the first time after 6 months off. Big shout on the Redcar form.

Verdict
Fair performer but still a maiden after 13 starts. 8/1, creditable third of 11 in maiden at Newcastle (7f) 11 days ago, finding test too much. The drop back to 6f may help but suspicion the wait for a first win will go on.
