11st 0lb

J: Toby McCain-Mitchell

T: Robbie Llewellyn

Has a patchy profile but she made it 2-6 over fences when justifying favouritism here (2m4f, good) last month; up 6lb but that was a personal best last time and her other chase win came over this C&D; key player.

Won easily over fences at Ludlow (3m) in January on debut for this yard but nothing since, latterly with cheekpieces back on; now tries a visor; risky enough.

Form & Verdict
Competitive over hurdles last spring and heavy ground was a feasible excuse when pulled up on chase debut at Leicester in February after 281 days off (had lost position when sprawling at the 11th); can be given another chance.

A Little Something

11st 4lb

J: Charlie Todd

T: Emma Lavelle

Completed a double with an easy win over C&D (good) in June but she's failed to complete in last three runs and was pulled up here last time (sustained an overreach to left fore); comes with risks attached but she still looks on a workable mark and has claims if she can get back on track.

J: Ben Jones

T: Emma Lavelle

Easily won two small-field chases this spring, the latter from the front here (2m3f, good), and was in front before last-fence mishap at Stratford (2m3f, good to firm) on next outing; fell last time but could plausibly still have more improvement to come if she gets round safely.

Hasn't kicked on from her win over 3m here on good ground in October but she's back on that winning mark and she had hurdle form at about this trip.

J: Jonathan Burke

T: Emma Lavelle

1-11 over fences, the win gained on last season's reappearance at Ludlow (3m, good) in October; not in same form again since but she's now 5lb lower than for that success and needs watching in the market after 163 days off; cheekpieces worn last time are removed.

Form & Verdict
Dual point winner; having only her fourth run over fences when runner-up at Warwick (3m, soft) and looks up to winning races off this low a mark; good ground will be fine.

Dual Irish point winner; off the mark at the sixth attempt over fences at Ffos Las (3m, good to soft; first-time cheekpieces) in May, but she flopped in her follow-up bid at Uttoxeter (pulled up) in June; has something to prove again after that and she comes with risks attached after a break.
