Point and dual hurdle winner who made 2-7 in fences when landing the odds in a mares' handicap at Worcester (2m4f, good; tongue-tie added) 23 days ago; jumped well under a positive ride in that race and she's a big player off only 2lb higher here.

J: Gavin Sheehan

T: Jamie Snowden

Suffered dip in form after quite impressive win on chase/handicap debut in the autumn but was back on song when close third in valuable mares' chase at Market Rasen (2m5f, good) three weeks ago; in much calmer waters here and ought to be hard to beat.

Form & Verdict
Showed promise in maiden/novice hurdles before running respectably when third on handicap debut at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) in March; finished weakly over a slightly longer trip at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) the following month but has since undergone wind surgery; now switches to fences from what looks a workable mark (eased 2lb) and commands respect.

Made a pleasing start over fences when runner-up at Worcester (2m4f, good) last month; her performance when pulled up at Hexham subsequently was too bad to be true; first-time cheekpieces are now applied and she still has time on her side.

Maiden hurdler who was a creditable second of four to a progressive rival in a mares' handicap at Worcester on chase debut this month (2m4f, good; first run after wind op; made a mistake four out, but rallied); one with a chance.

Form & Verdict
Well-bred mare; kept on for a respectable third on handicap hurdle debut at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good) last month and shaped reasonably well on chase debut at Stratford (2m1f, good to firm) where she jumped soundly; pedigree suggests this longer trip should suit and a first-time hood may also eke out a little more, now eased 2lb.

Maiden who is not living up to her pedigree but seemed to enjoy front-running role and ran best race yet when clear second of ten in Worcester handicap chase (2m, good) 12 days ago; must be considered after that effort.

Modest maiden hurdler; yet to offer much in two runs in this sphere, hooded when a well-held third of four in 2m4f handicap here 25 days ago; lots more is required from 2lb out of the handicap.

Form & Verdict
Irish raider; 13-race maiden whose best effort came over hurdles when a close second at Tramore (2m5f, good) last August, but three attempts over fences have seen her pulled up twice and tailed off once; Sean Bowen booked and, while a return to better ground and handicap company may help, she still has plenty to prove.
