ALNWICK ABBY (2) followed an unplaced run at this track two starts ago with a sound second, beaten one length, last start in an A7 at this track over 480m (29.73). Takes on a handicap here and will be starting 10m from the scratch dog. Very handy handicapper who has recorded two wins in three runs from the staggered start. Genuine handicapper who has two wins and zero placings from three runs from the staggered start. Top chance as she gets back to the handicaps. ALNWICK AURORA (1) finished sixth in an A8 over 480m at this track (30.55) last time out. Finished second in her only other try in a handicap. Expected to measure up with that run under the belt. SO ITS LILLIE (3) was in the money first try in a handicap when when off 7m, finishing third over 480m at this track (29.62) on January 2. Looking to notch first handicap win and will jump from the 8m mark. Hard to knock the recent form. FABULOUS MIRAGE (5) has been mixing her form in handicaps. Nice effort to finish third two runs back off scratch at this track then only managed fourth, beaten 2.25 lengths, last start when starting off scratch at this track over 480m (29.80). Today will be starting off 2m.
