Choice Training Handicap

Lightly raced 4yo who ran well when third on the AW here (1m2f) in April; however, following wind surgery she was tailed off at Goodwood (1m2f, good to soft) three weeks ago and it's hard to be hopeful after that.

Has yet to finish better than sixth across her four starts but she was beaten only about 3l when eighth of nine on handicap debut at Bath (1m, good) three weeks ago, and the way she kept on suggests today's step up in trip can prompt improvement; could have a part to play.

In good form this spring having reverted to the Flat, posting two wins at Brighton (1m2f, good to firm/good), including on his latest start when beating a runner-up who has since gone one better; strong claims up 3lb.

Returned to form to win at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) last month, scoring at that venue for a third time; has shown ability on turf and is not ruled out but his 0-6 record on grass isn't particularly convincing.

Soundly beaten when back on turf at Brighton last month and has something to prove on grass; however, he's back in the visor here in which he won two in a row at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) in April; entitled to respected in view of that unbeaten record in today's headgear.
