Verdict

WOPBOPALOOMOP transformed when winning a competitive 14-runner nursery at Windsor 10 days ago after a 4-month break, proving strong at the finish over this trip, and she can defy her penalty if this doesn't come too soon. Secret Rival went with more zest at Newcastle last time and shaped as if back in form, so is feared most, while Crowned has form to make an impact but his stable have been quiet of late.

1	Proved a different proposition when winning a 14-runner nursery over 6f at Windsor 10 days ago after a 4-month break. Found plenty for pressure for that success and holds strong claims under a penalty if proving as effective back on all-weather. 1st Pick 1 Wopbopaloomop Jockey: Jack Callan Trainer: Richard Spencer J: Jack Callan T: Richard Spencer	100	-	-	-	25%

10	Modest form at best to date but went with more zest when fifth of 11 in a handicap at Newcastle 15 days ago and can be competitive if building on that with good-value claimer taking over. 2nd Pick 10 Secret Rival (Ire) Jockey: Ashley Lewis Trainer: Ed Walker J: Ashley Lewis T: Ed Walker	96	-	-	-	9%

2	Twice runner-up since moving into nurseries on turf having been well backed on both occasions. Now back on all-weather and looks sure to be in the mix if in the same heart, though his stable haven't had a winner since June which is a concern. 3rd Pick 2 Crowned (Ire) Jockey: Lewis Edmunds Trainer: Michael Keady J: Lewis Edmunds T: Michael Keady	97	-	-	-	34%
