Santorini Star
Found it too much in a valuable 0-105 AW handicap off her revised mark last time but wasn't beaten far and remains open to improvement on her turf debut back from a few months off; holds leading claims for a yard in fine form.

Zayina
Competitive off this sort of mark during a limited campaign last year without looking to have anything in hand; was a similar story on her 1m4f comeback early in the month and she remains vulnerable to improvers.

Substitute
Closed out last season with a surprise Tapeta win and ran to a similar level on her Southwell comeback two months ago off her revised mark; this longer trip should be within range on the dam's side but she'll need to improve for it.

Lady Ridgewood
Improved on last autumn's two efforts when a clear second (third a winner since) on her Newbury return, upped to this trip from 1m; hard to know the exact merits of that as yet but she remains open to further improvement now handicapping.

Manara
Sharp improver since handicapping on the AW, winning three and going 25lb up the weights; may have hit her ceiling now and will need to improve again back on turf but her recent second, back from a short break, represented another personal best.
