Form & Verdict
Penalised for her debut maiden win at Clairefontaine (2m1f, very soft); struggled in a stronger race at Auteuil (sixth of ten, beaten 20l) since, but makes her British debut in realistic company, albeit with proficiency on a sound surface to prove; merits respect.

Form & Verdict
Placed on AW in France (7.5f, Deauville) for Christopher Head, but failed to make the track for David Menuisier; joined this trainer for 60,000gns in the summer, so it will be interesting to see how she fares over hurdles, without necessarily being bred for the winter game.

Form & Verdict
Ex-Joseph O'Brien; made a low-key stable/hurdles debut, but signs of promise since at Ludlow (third) and Fakenham (runner-up to a long odds-on favourite); conditions are fine so should have a positive role to play.

Has yet to win and placed again on her first run for this yard in a 2m maiden at Worcester 18 days ago; still appeals as a likely contender and she has been competitive off this sort of mark.

Made the frame on five of her eight hurdling starts for Alex Hales, most recently when second of seven in Huntingdon handicap (2m, good) in May; soundly beaten on final two outings for that stable and not sure to be favoured by the forecast rain here but has good claims if back on song for new trainer Olly Murphy.

Form & Verdict
Modest on Flat (1-11), winning a low-grade 7f Yarmouth nursery (soft) for Michael Bell last October; lacked fluency when a distant third (Window Of Time second) on Fakenham hurdles debut; the least likely solution.
