Brynford is the most recent winner but steps up in trip and class after scoring over 7f here earlier this month. Little Dolly and Azma have found life tough in handicaps having made winning debuts but Oilinda and Magika ended last year with maiden victories and are worth noting in the betting. Aerowyn Bryn won a handicap here in September and Elle Rebelle hasn't raced since making a winning debut at Carlisle in June. OF COURSE DARLING doesn't stand out on form with a fourth at Newmarket her best effort last season, but Ryan Moore's booking take the eye and Ed Dunlop's filly gets the speculative vote on her return to action.
