Lodge (F)
[T1]
Winner at Ffos Las on first of 2 starts last year and not beaten far on seasonal/handicap debut at Wolverhampton in January. However, has run poorly the last twice, well held over this C&D when last seen in April. Tongue strap fitted.

Dolo's Star (F)
Progressed with each of her 3 starts for Grant Tuer, second of 8 in 5f novice at Southwell on latest outing in April. Extra furlong is likely to suit as she makes handicap debut for new yard.

Carefree Dream (F)
Has worked her way back to form this year, runner-up over 5f at Goodwood on her last 2 starts with Donagh Murphy on board both occasions. Needs to be able to confirm those efforts back up to 6f.

Guernsey Angel (F)
Showed a good attitude from the front when winning twice in 5f all-weather nurseries last year. Has yet to match that form on turf, though, sixth of 11 in handicap at Haydock (6f) in May.

[P]
Has gone the right way with each of her 3 starts so far (trained by Jack Channon on debut), third of 12 in maiden at Lingfield (7.6f, heavy) last month. Drops in trip with cheekpieces reapplied for handicap bow.

Q T Pie (F)
Windsor maiden winner for Daniel & Claire Kubler last summer. After 9 months off ahead of stable debut, much improved when second of 9 in handicap at Goodwood (6f) 22 days ago, clear of the rest. Major player with promise of a strong pace …

[P]
Successful twice over 7f at Wolverhampton this spring. Has proved her effectiveness on turf with in-frame efforts 2 of last 3 starts, soon leaving behind a below-par effort when second of 10 at Carlisle 19 days ago. Could be in the mix bac…

Sierra Sue (F)
[P1]
Best effort when 1½ lengths fifth of 10 in maiden over this C&D in May. Hasn't seen things out in 2 handicaps since, fifth of 9 at Redcar (5f) 15 days ago, so needs to get back on the up returned to this venue with cheekpieces on.

May Encounter (F)
Consistent rather than progressive in 2025 and ran to a similar level as on this season's reappearance when fifth of 9 in handicap at Nottingham last month. Still looking for a breakthrough victory, though her mark continues to ease.

Dropped back to 6f, was suited by a good pace to aim at when opening account in 9-runner handicap at Newmarket 2 weeks ago. Could get a similar set up here, so she enters calculations.

Returned to winning ways here (7f) in May, landing the same race for second year in succession. However, back into class 5 company she failed to repeat that effort when well held at Newmarket 15 days ago.
