Gerritzen^t²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: Max Kendrick| T: T Bulgin

125/1

Well held both starts to date and looks firmly up against it once more.

Form: 55

Isla Diamonds⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: Aaron Anderson⁽⁷⁾| T: M E Sowersby

14/1

Bred to need time, but left debut form well behind when a surprising (150/1) at Uttoxeter 9 days ago. Hard to say whether he'll build on that or not, however.

Form: 72

Mourne Lass⁸⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: B S Hughes| T: S R B Crawford| BF

5/4

Well-bred mare who was sent off a short price when third at Hexham on debut, not finding much. Capable of better 85 days on, so boasts obvious claims.

Form: 3

Sister Sophie⁵⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: Jack Tudor⁽³⁾| T: Christian Williams

16/1

Related to a couple of winners and showed plenty to work on when runner-up at Worcester on debut, albeit seemingly needing the emphasis more on stamina. Could get involved if they go off hard.

Form: 2

Annie's Dream

Age: 4| Weight: 10-9| J: Benjamin Poste| T: C Hobson

50/1

Norse Dancer filly. Dam, point winner, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 3m) Malapie. Looks more likely to peak further down the line.

Form:

Bonttay

Age: 4| Weight: 10-9| J: P J Brennan| T: F O'Brien

15/8

Westerner filly. Dam (h111) bumper/21f-2¾m hurdle winner (stayed 3m). One to take seriously for a stable that enjoys plenty of success in this discipline.

Form:

Shantou Champagne⁵⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 10-9| J: S Bowen| T: P & M Bowen

9/2

Sister to bumper winner/useful hurdler Tullyesker Hill, but looked in need of further when only mid-field at Perth on debut. Will need to much sharper if she's to make a serious impact in this.

Form: 7

Non-Runners

Presenting Grace

Weight: 10-12| Age: 5

T: P Charalambous J: Non Runner

Forecasts

Mourne Lass (5/4), Bonttay (15/8), Shantou Champagne (9/2), Isla Diamonds (14/1), Presenting Grace (14/1), Sister Sophie (16/1), Annie's Dream (50/1), Gerritzen (125/1)

BONTTAY is out of a bumper winner and should be well prepared by her shrewd yard for this initial racecourse experience, so she's marginally preferred to Mourne Lass, who didn't quite come up to expectations when third at Hexham on debut, but is obviously quite well regarded. Sister Sophie is the pick of the remainder.
