Productive 2022 and she's looked better than ever despite being 0-4 this year; big chance
2 (6)	Mojomaker Bay J:Ben Curtis T:David Loughnane	J:Ben Curtis T:David Loughnane	137	t	-52833	83	93	82	39d	—	—	+1	20.6	0.83/1	10/3 23%
On losing run; usually seen over further and others are more persuasive in this field
4 (5)	Count Dorsay Bay J:Phil Dennis T:Tim Easterby	J:Phil Dennis T:Tim Easterby	132	p	117055	78	94	60	7d	—	—	0	12.6	1.38/1	11/2 15%
Two wins this summer, including C&D, but he's retreated into his shell more recently

Good start to the campaign but beaten off similar marks on her last four starts
3 (3)	May Blossom Bay J:Jason Watson T:David Omeara	J:Jason Watson T:David Omeara	135	b	336110	81	93	82	14d	—	—	+14	22.9	2.13/1	17/2 11%
Flopped in hat-trick bid latest (not well drawn); needs to leave that well behind her
5 (2)	Never Dark Bay J:William Pyle(5) T:Iain Jardine	J:William Pyle(5) T:Iain Jardine	132	—	25-176	78	92	54	11d	—	—	+3	8.4	5.25/1	22 5%
Yet to shine after a seven-month break; return to 5f won't hurt but others appeal more
6 (4)	Sound Of Iona Chestnut J:Paul Mulrennan T:Jim Goldie	J:Paul Mulrennan T:Jim Goldie	131	—	8-0050	77	99	65	90d	—	—	+4	8	5.25/1	22 5%
On a good mark and penultimate start was promising; better ground would be preferable
