Course specialist who has won three times here and has been consistent of late; did well from an unfavourable starting berth over 1m1f here (handicap) when fourth beaten just over 2l two weeks ago; likely player.

Seeking a hat-trick today and shown recent signs of improvement; too good for several of these when in front by just under 2l 14 days ago in a handicap; a rise in the ratings to contend with.

Near miss at 14-5 last month in a handicap; has largely been consistent of late; not won for some time now; a rise in the ratings to contend with.

Seems to have stepped up on previous form the last twice and on a hat-trick after last win; she accounted for three of these rivals when winning by half a length in a handicap 28 days ago; edging up the ratings; needs considering.

Fair effort when 3l sixth to Ethical in a handicap last month; you have to go back a fair way to find her only win but she can be competitive at this level.

Behind Duchess Of Paloma here two weeks ago when beaten 11l (seventh of ten) in a handicap; looks likely to go well if finding her best form and she is running off a lower mark.

Verdict
Quite an open contest. Annewithan E has won over C&D while there is a question mark over whether Duchess Of Paloma will be effective over this trip. However, ETHICAL gets the nod. She has been a winner once over this C&D and is in rude health.
