SAHANA had something in hand when making a winning return at Yarmouth a fortnight ago and is taken to follow up. Little Keilee and Orange Sky rate the principal dangers.

Off the mark at Lingfield (8f) in April and posted creditable efforts in defeat since, latest when second of 8 in handicap at Leicester (8.2f, good to firm) 31 days ago. Should give another good account.

Verdict
Promising type who posted career best when winning 6-runner handicap at Yarmouth (8f, good to firm) 14 days ago. This is more competitive but it's likely we haven't seen the best of her yet.

Verdict
Enjoyed a fine all-weather campaign, recording 4 wins from 9 runs this year. Disappointed back on turf at Nottingham last time, though, and makes limited appeal here.

Costly purchase who opened account in 1m Haydock novice last September and backed that up with good second at Yarmouth on final start of campaign. Not been in same form either start this season, however, and has something to prove at present.

Verdict
Found improvement when narrowly taking 5-runner novice at Brighton (8f, good) 36 days ago. May have more to offer on switch to handicapping, although her opening mark could have been kinder.
