With a good run under her belt and today's step up in trip, the well-related COMA CLUSTER may well get off the mark. Cymbidium, another who moves up in trip, may prove the most potent among those who have not raced this season, while handicap newcomers Rock Camelot (second choice) and Star Cast should be a lot more interesting than on their recent reappearances.[Richard Austen]

All of her turf runs have been on good or softer and she's effective in the mud; reached the frame in all her seven handicaps, winning from off the pace at Sandown (1m2f, good) in September; 7lb higher this time and off 194 days but she needs respect.
0-7 for Peter Chapple-Hyam and 0-2 this year for current yard; has threatened a win, notably on two starts (1m2f/1m4f) last summer, and she was second of five from the front in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) one month ago, so she enters the equation.
Helped set the pace when winning at Hamilton (1m1f) and York (1m2f) in 2023 but her three runs in 2024 were disappointing; same owners but a change of stable since she was last seen in September.
Scored once each in July 2023 and July 2024, from 22 races; competitive judged on plenty of evidence last season, including penultimate start, but she needed at least her first couple of runs in that campaign.
Won back to back from off the pace over 1m2f at Ayr (good) and Redcar (soft) last May but had a mixed record afterwards; reappears today on a good mark but she was well held first time out in the last two seasons.
Placed at Newmarket (7f, good) last summer in first two starts but did not fare so well in her three races since, particularly when last of five at Southwell (1m3f; ducked left when weakening) this month on seasonal/AW debut.
Won at Thirsk (1m, good) last September on handicap debut; ran creditably in two of three subsequent starts, with the latest (1m, soft) and family both giving plenty of hope for 1m2f; improvement is needed but possible.
28-1 and twice 18-1 when making the running on all three starts, best result when second of eight in a maiden at Doncaster (1m, soft) in October; ran creditably facing a stiff task on AW reappearance (1m4f) and this handicap debut should offer much better prospects of the breakthrough win.
9-1, improved markedly when keeping on to be a close second of eight on handicap debut at Nottingham (1m, good) 15 days ago; up 2lb but this filly is well related and it looks like she will stay 1m2f.
Improved through her three starts last August/October for Sir Mark Prescott, front-running third of eight in novice at Yarmouth (1m, soft) on final outing; sold for 17,000gns in October and 100-1 when last of eight in an AW maiden on recent reappearance; should stay 1m2f and needs a second look.
