Verdict

EMERY DOWN is on a dangerous mark if bouncing back from a lesser effort on the all-weather last time. She's narrowly preferred to Rosemary's Rose and Kaleidoscope Eyes, who both arrive in good nick. Dappled Light is another to consider if lining up.

8	Sole success in 7f Kempton maiden last May. Finished ¾-length second in a higher grade at Ayr prior to disappointing on the all-weather last time. She seems versatile regarding ground and could be worth another chance off a slipping mark. 1st Pick 8 Emery Down Jockey: Pat Cosgrave Trainer: John Ryan J: Pat Cosgrave T: John Ryan	99	-	-	-	29%

5	Dual 1m all-weather winner over the winter. Running well whilst proving expensive to follow of late, beaten 1½ lengths behind Kaleidoscope Eyes in handicap (evens) at Ffos Las (7.5f) latest. Does reoppose that rival on more favourable terms here, though. 2nd Pick 5 Rosemary's Rose (Ire) Jockey: Taryn Langley Trainer: Rod Millman J: Taryn Langley T: Rod Millman	98	-	-	-	29%

6	Won twice under contrasting conditions at Ffos Las (7.5f) for present yard (also finished third in slightly better company there last month). Travelled as though still in form when beaten 9 lengths over same C&D last time. Has to be high on the shortlist. 3rd Pick 6 Kaleidoscope Eyes (Ire) Jockey: Ryan Kavanagh Trainer: Bernard Llewellyn & Robert Williams J: Ryan Kavanagh T: Bernard Llewellyn & Robert Williams	100	-	-	-	17%
