Geri Roulette, winner of two of her last three starts, can continue the good work at Haydock tomorrow.
Trained by Eric Alston, the five-year-old goes for the Victoria Park Fillies' Handicap over a mile and a half and will have the assistance of John Carroll, who rode her to victory at Hamilton last time.
On that occasion, Geri Roulette produced a no-nonsense performance, taking the race by the scruff of the neck a long way from home and staying on relentlessly to win by a wide margin.
The expected good-to-soft ground at Haydock will be ideal for Geri Roulette to continue her winning ways.
Paul Hanagan, who picked up a three-day ban for careless riding at Hamilton yesterday, can enjoy better luck on Fair Shake in the Performance Car Hire Showcase Handicap.
The sprinter, trained by Don Eddy, has been in decent form this season and was a winner last time out at Hamilton. Tomorrow's underfoot conditions are ideal for her to score again in this six furlongs dash.
Eddy, who is based near Newcastle, has another good chance with Ace Coming in the Summer Claiming Stakes.
The two-year-old, acquired out of Linda Stubbs' Norton yard after finishing second in a similar race at Newcastle, was out of his depth when finishing third to the potentially high-class Chester Le Street at Ayr last time.
The nap vote is awarded to Tom Paddington in the Goose Green Handicap.
A good fourth at Newbury on his reappearance in May, the Hughie Morrison-trained gelding had been lined up for a crack at last Saturday's Northumberland Plate at Newcastle, only he failed to make the cut.
Tom Paddington has little to beat here and is confidently selected to oblige in the hands of Richard Hughes.
The feature race at Yarmouth is the Bob Hunt Family & Friends Conditions Stakes over seven furlongs.
Preference is for Tarjman, who is unbeaten in two outings this term and who showed sterling qualities to come from a long way back to win by a short-head at Epsom's Derby meeting.
Alec Stewart's colt is clearly a smart performer and is fancied to take another successful step up the ladder here.
Little Venice should go well in the PKF Accountancy Services Fillies' Handicap.
Chris Wall's charge got off the mark at Warwick last time and although there was no great merit in that performance, her all-round consistency entitles her to plenty of respect in this event.
Also worth noting are interesting newcomer Madaeh (2-30) and the primising Foxy Diva (4-10).
