Form & Verdict
Point winner (3m, soft to heavy) who has achieved little under rules; pulled up on return from wind surgery at Taunton (2m2f, soft; 22-1, second run over fences) in February; headgear tweaked once more as she seeks to rediscover a basic spark; unappealing.

J: Lilly Pinchin

T: Emma-Jane Bishop

Beat 1-9 favourite when winning two-runner edition of this race a year ago (good ground) and was in front before last-fence unseat over C&D (good to soft) in October; returned from break with low-key run last month but remains lightly raced for her age, and her course form is a selling point.

Won a match at Fakenham in April last year and would possibly have doubled her score back at that venue but for unseating at the last in October, returns from another break and hard to be confident she'd repeat the effort.

Ballygelly

10st 5lb

J: Lilly Pinchin

T: Emma-Jane Bishop

Won a match over C&D in April (in this headgear) but that effort stands out among otherwise modest form and she was pulled up when last seen later that month; returns from a six-month break with a bit to prove.

6 yo Mare

OR: 100

Form & Verdict
Always to the fore and readily off the mark at Doncaster (3m2f, good) 18 days ago; now 9lb higher, but is worthy of such a rise given the level of improvement that she's shown switched to fences; likely to take plenty of pegging back around here; rates as the one to beat.

Easily won a 3m2f Doncaster mares' handicap in March 2025 for Harry Derham (good) and denied only close home in points at Revesby Park (3m) and Bangor-on-Dee (2m4f) this year; have to hope last-time failure doesn't presage a return to last autumn's rules struggles, however.

J: James Bowen

T: Sarah-Jayne Davies

Easy winner of a 3m2f Doncaster mares' handicap in March on just her second chase outing (good), but checked out too tamely for the 9lb rise to be accountable when turned over at 1-9 in a Fakenham match next time, and has since left Harry Derham (for £9,000); stable debut.
