Dual C&D wnner Boujee Gold makes the shortlist after her recent turf success, while it would be no surprise if Disclosure were to bounce back from her Southwell performance. However, the vote goes to CROWN'S LADY (nap), who is off the same mark as when chasing home a subsequent winner at Beverley 13 days ago. Dual course winner Cerulean Summer has been running consistently well in recent months and may pose the main threat.[David Bellingham]

Three wins for Craig Lidster last year included two at Southwell (7f, Tapeta); well backed when second of 11 on her stable debut after five months off at Beverley (8.5f, good) 13 days ago and the winner has gone in again since; respected off same mark.
Very consistent having made the frame in her last eight starts; usually seen over further and both wins here in the autumn came over an extra furlong, but she was beaten only a neck over C&D on her penultimate start; should go well again.
Slowly edging back down the weights since making a successful stable debut at Newcastle (1m, Tapeta) in December, but she finished around 6l behind Crown's Lady at Beverley (8.5f, good) 13 days ago; more needed in a new headgear combination.
Change of stables had an immediate impact when off the mark at the 12th attempt at Lingfield (1m, Polytrack) under Mason Paetel (1-1 on her) this month, but her wide draw proved a problem at Southwell (1m, Tapeta) a week later; better than that and no surprise if she bounced back.
Placed three times at around 1m on the AW from nine starts for James Fanshawe, but modest in both outings for this yard and now 0-11; first-time blinkers need to help stop the slide (has worn hood/cheekpieces).
Not the most consistent but has scored twice over C&D and returned to winning form at Brighton (1m, good to firm) this month; back up 3lb but has won off 1lb higher around here so has to make the shortlist.
