Modest filly. Remains a maiden after 16 Flat runs. Respectable third of 11 in handicap at this C&D (22/1) 25 days ago. Should come on for latest outing and is worth a chance to belatedly open her account.

Modest gelding. Course winner. Latest win here in August. 14/1, last of 12 in handicap at this course (6f) 50 days ago. Has a bit to prove at present.

Modest gelding. Career best when winning 12-runner handicap (7/1) at this C&D 102 days ago, always holding on. First run for yard after leaving Alex French. Very much one to be interested in starting out for shrewd yard.
Timeform Verdict 
LADY OF THE GARR is consistent and should be sharper for her latest effort, so she gets the narrow vote over Dash Gordon, who makes his debut for Mick Appleby after scoring on his final outing for Alex French. Blackcurrent isn't without hope.
