In depth

Verdict

Checkitsme gained her only success over this track and trip in January but was beaten a distance on her reappearance at Plumpton. HEURE DE GLOIRE won a mares' handicap at Ffos Las in March and has dropped back to a winnable mark but Emma Lamb is 0-20 and has her first start for new connections on her return from a very long break. Choral Work has done nowhere near as well as expected after landing a Taunton novices' race in February while Hello Bob struggled from her raised mark after scoring at Uttoxeter in 2020 though is now 3lb lower.
