Selected odds by:
Runner-up twice from 4 starts in bumpers and confirmed previous promise when off the mark over hurdles in novice at Wincanton recently. Respected despite the burden of a penalty.
|
Cost £60,000 after finishing second in an Irish point on debut but was disappointing on both outings under Rules for Dan Skelton and has something to prove for new yard after 10 months off.
|
Best effort in bumpers when fourth at Newbury in February but she did enjoy the run of things from the front. Considerately handled when well held on Uttoxeter hurdling debut 34 days ago.
|
Scored at the third attempt in bumpers and completed a positive start to hurdling when runner-up in a novice at Hexham 17 days ago. Open to improvement up in trip, so warrants strong consideration.
|
Point winner who made a successful bumper debut under Rules with a likeable performance in the mud at Hereford. Runner-up on hurdles bow when last seen in March and there's more to come.
|
Out of a bumper winner but didn't offer much encouragement when down the field on both starts in that sphere. Up in trip for hurdling bow.
|
Has only hinted at ability to date and is probably more of a handicap type.
|
Second in point bumper before shaping well in third in a mares' bumper at Bangor on Rules debut. This is a big ask after 19 months off with a tongue tie fitted for hurdling debut.
|
Left bumper form well behind when runner-up in a novice hurdle at Lingfield a month ago but possibly raced on the best ground that day and the form has taken a substantial knock since.
|
£100,000 buy after getting off the mark in Irish points at the second attempt but yet to come up to expectations over hurdles, only fifth at Exeter last time. Others make more appeal.
|
Poor form in bumpers and up against it trying hurdling.

Forecasts
Global Harmony (9/4), Hollymount Holly (5/2), Fairfield Ferrata (7/2), Tequila Blaze (9/2), Timeless Beauty (12/1), Sweet Spirit (28/1), Cateline (40/1), Legendary Rhythm (50/1), Ballycallan Fame (125/1), Just Jess (200/1), Veshenskaya (300/1)
Point/bumper winner HOLLYMOUNT HOLLY found only one too good on her hurdling debut in March and promises to be well suited by this step up in trip, so she can find enough progress to open her account over hurdles back from 9 months off. Fairfield Ferrata looks the main threat ahead of Global Harmony, the only hurdling winner in the field.
