6 yo Filly

OR: 73

Form & Verdict
Ten-race maiden but she's been consistent in handicaps and was a fair fourth on her Warwick reappearance (3m2f, good) last month; should benefit from that run and she's not ruled out back in trip; cheekpieces added.

Luna Run

10st 2lb

J: Megan Fox

T: Harry Derham

Just 1-16 over hurdles when trained by Evan Williams and was unable to justify odds-on favouritism when only sixth of 12 here (2m5f, good) on last month's stable debut; may yet come good for Harry Derham, though, and this move back up in trip will suit; wears refitted tongue-tie; gained her win on good to firm but has form on good to soft; 3lb wrong.

J: Paul O’Brien

T: Harry Derham

3m hurdle winner last April in first-time cheekpieces, that her only win in 16 attempts, though often placed; given wind surgery after finishing a distant third at Plumpton (3m1f, good to soft) in October on final start for Evan Williams; back in trip following a break and worth considering for stable going well.

10st 11lb

J: Isabel Williams

T: Evan Williams

Gave good account when third of 16 at Uttoxeter (2m7f, good) in July and didn't run badly over C&D last month, but her only win from 15 hurdling starts came in a three-runner race; others appeal more.

6 yo Filly

OR: 92

Form & Verdict
Ex-French 6yo; generally struggled in seven runs for Syd Hosie (including four non-completions), but she turned things around for new yard with 22-1 win here (2m3f, good to firm) in November; this is a different test after another break but she flew home from an unpromising position last time and remains feasibly treated off only 2lb higher; respected back up in trip.

J: Rex Dingle

2m1f and 2m3f hurdle winner; well beaten second at Taunton (3m, good to firm) in April but fared better here (2m5f, good) latest; not ruled out but she does have a bit to prove over his trip.

7 yo Filly

OR: 80

Form & Verdict
Two 2m wins (AW) on the Flat and she made it sixth-time lucky over hurdles when landing a seller at Exeter (2m2f, good; 14-1) three weeks ago; 4lb higher back in a handicap but she still has potential over hurdles and looks interesting on this switch to a staying trip.

J: David Probert

Dual 2m AW winner who took a good-ground selling hurdle in April; slow-starting second under 7lb claimer at Bath (2m1f, good to firm) 12 days ago confirms that she is firmly in the mix.

Dual AW winner who took a selling hurdle at Exeter (2m2f) in April; placed behind Cherry Cola on only other visit to this track (1m6f) and some encouragement is drawn from her latest Salisbury effort (staying-on fifth); step up in trip in her favour; a possible.
