Several are yet to reveal their full hands but STELLENBOSCH looks well treated based on her reappearance effort at Newmarket and is taken to break her duck. She's The Duchess has plenty going for her too and could be the one to chase home the selection, with Jowddah and Saariselka other possibles in an interesting contest.[Jonathan Doidge]

Made a promising debut last June, scoring in a Doncaster fillies' maiden (6.5f, good), but has gone backwards with each subsequent start; returns from a break with plenty to prove.
After three successive seconds she was rewarded for her consistency at Newcastle (1m, AW) last month, when she broke her duck in a fillies' maiden; has gone close here (1m, good to soft); initial mark looks on the stiff side but she is open to improvement and much respected back down in trip.
Improved with each juvenile start, winning the second of them at Newbury (6f, good to firm) last August; initial mark may look stiff but she's had the winter to improve and is not ruled out.
Placed over 6f-7f in all three starts, including going very close at Newmarket's Craven meeting (7f, good) last month; looks well treated on that evidence and can be a leading player on her handicap debut.
Odds-on both starts, winning at Newcastle (7f, AW) in January and only just held when racing prominently at Ponterfract (6f, good) last month; can continue to improve back over this trip on this flatter track; likely player on handicap debut.
Debut Kempton winner (6f, AW; first-time hood) last July but has been unable to improve on that in another novice or on her handicap debut; hood goes back on for her reappearance and she clearly goes well when fresh; not written off.
Second in three successive fillies' novice events last summer (all 7f-1m, good); not disgraced despite a couple of stiffish tasks to end her juvenile campaign; should find this level more to her liking and not written off.
Won her first two starts (both Lingfield, AW) over 7f and 7.5f last summer; best of three handicap efforts came on Newcastle's Tapeta (7f) last October; drops 3lb after reappearance defeat; others make greater appeal.
Produced three similar qualifying efforts over 7f-1m; initial mark looks stiff based on that form but she could improve now returning from a break and entering handicaps.
Not disgraced in three juvenile starts for Richard Hannon; has since changed hands and will need improvement to score from this mark on her handicap debut.
