Made winning debut in small-field race at Punchestown in March for Colin Bowe. Will need to better that form to defy a penalty but still respected for new yard which has won this twice since 2014.

33/1

33/1, showed ability when beaten just under 15 lengths into third on her Newton Abbot debut 24 days ago but she'll likely be vulnerable to some of the newcomers here unless stepping up on that form.

Form: 3

100/1

Dunaden filly. Dam, bumper winner, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser (stayed 21f) Owen Na View. Best watched on debut unless the betting strongly hints otherwise.

Forecasts

Walk On High (2/1), Hullnback (6/1), Realm Of Glory (15/2), Riskintheground (8/1), Last Quarter (17/2), Keplerian (17/2), Guerlain De Vaux (16/1), Half The Freedom (16/1), Dylan's Double (18/1), Kitaway (22/1), Danzini (33/1), Bonza Boy (33/1), Bells Of Stamford (50/1), Duke Of Luckley (66/1), Double For Fun (100/1)

A few likely types among the newcomers so the betting could prove informative. HULLNBACK gets a tentative nod for the Fergal O'Brien team. Riskintheground, Walk On High and Keplerian are other debutants with the right sort of profiles, while Last Quarter didn't achieve much when scoring in a small field in Ireland in the spring but is a possible improver for new handler David Pipe.
