Verdict

BIPLANE scored over 7f here last October and a mile at Ayr in July before completing a double over this trip at Southwell. She's up 5lb but looks the one to beat in this kind of form. La Feile won a Class 6 Redcar handicap but has struggled since stepping up to this level in subsequent starts while Key Look's recent good form has all been over 7f at the lower grade. However, the latter won here in October from just 1lb lower so looks a danger. Rose's Girl has run here twice and been placed both times but needs to raise her game
