7 yo Mare

OR: 91

Form & Verdict
Fast-improving mare who won easily on chasing debut at Worcester (2m, good; first-time tongue-tie) 12 days ago and has quickly added two easy hurdle wins (2m4f/2m, good) to her tally; probably still a long way ahead of the handicapper and can continue her winning spree here.

J: Harry Skelton

Effectively runs off 3lb lower here than when last week's chase success in a Newton Abbot match (2m, good) completed her six-timer inside 15 days; unraced right-handed so far during her winning streak, but no real reason why that or the return to hurdling should present a problem; 10lb well in.

J: Harry Skelton

T: Dan Skelton

Rapidly improving mare, having won three chases and two hurdles (2m4f/2m) on good ground in the space of a fortnight, latest at Worcester yesterday on the bridle and value for markedly more than the winning margin; respected assuming she again turns out quickly, although any significant easing of the ground would be a concern.

Fast-improving mare who has been on the rampage over the last fortnight, winning two 2m chases and two hurdles (2m4f/2m) on good ground; carries 7lb penalty for Tuesday's success over fences at Southwell but did that pretty easily; obvious contender, providing she's not derailed by significant rain.

Front-runner who was left clear just after final fence to score at Market Rasen (2m1f, good) in April, opening his chase account at the 12th attempt, but needs to bounce back quickly from a poor run there 12 days ago.

Won a C&D handicap in April and was runner-up at Southwell last month but he's not easy to predict and was well below form at Stratford last time; that took his chase record to 1-15 and he needs to bounce back again.

Record of 1-14 over fences but that win came at Market Rasen (2m1f, good) in April and he was a front-running second behind a major improver at Southwell (2m, good) last time; this is a different test but his hurdles win was over 2m4f and he still looks feasibly treated; interesting contender.
