Victory and a third to her name in two starts here and handles fast ground; considered

Returned to form of late; will be 2lb higher from tomorrow, so her claims are obvious
1 (7)	Maid In Chelsea Bay J:Jim Crowley T:Jack Jones	J:Jim Crowley T:Jack Jones	135	—	4116-6	72	83	68	23d	—	—	-7	10.5	1.13/1	9/2 18%
Well held in two handicaps, including on her recent comeback (good to firm)
7 (4)	Notre Maison Bay J:Rob Hornby T:Stuart Kittow	J:Rob Hornby T:Stuart Kittow	120	—	354-23	57	86	69	11d	—	—	-10	6.8	1.25/1	5/1 17%
Two solid efforts without the usual headgear this spring; fine on this ground; shortlisted
4 (2)	Vaunted Bay J:Finley Marsh T:Adrian Wintle	J:Finley Marsh T:Adrian Wintle	125	—	101-00	62	82	37	10d	—	—	-3	5.4	2.50/1	10/1 9%
Fine on fast turf and popped up at big prices twice last autumn; no surprise to see better
5 (5)	Joy Choi Bay J:William Carson T:Malcolm Saunders	J:William Carson T:Malcolm Saunders	122	—	/221-5	59	86	80	19d	—	—	-4	4.5	2.75/1	11/1 8%
Remote last of five on her comeback from almost a year off; 2-3 wins came on soft ground
6 (3)	Shibuya Storm Bay J:Mikkel Mortensen(5) T:George Margarson	J:Mikkel Mortensen(5) T:George Margarson	122	—	45866-	59	83	59	169d	—	—	-3	4.4	3.00/1	12/1 8%
Struggled once handicapping, coming 9lb down the weights; not obviously fancied on return
8 (8)	Olympic Quest Chestnut J:Ethan Jones(5) T:Joe Ponting	J:Ethan Jones(5) T:Joe Ponting	116	—	-78070	53	80	59	10d	—	—	-1	1.2	20.00/1	80/1 1%
Regressive mare who's only run once in a sprint; makes little appeal from 8lb wrong
