Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: C O'Farrell| T: Jedd O'Keeffe| OR: 108

15/8

Scored at third attempt in bumpers and positive start over hurdles when runner-up in a 2m Hexham novice in December. Unable to build on that since but should strip fitter with reappearance behind her.

Form: 212P5-3

Indian Glory⁴³

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: N de Boinville| T: N J Henderson

16/1

In top hands but little in the way of promise after 3 starts.

Form: 9/5-7

Moonamacaroona²⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: Tom Cannon| T: A King| BF

4/5

Dual-bumper winner who is bred to make a hurdler. Stumbled and unseated rider on first go at it here a month ago but clearly well worth another chance.

Form: 311-U

Tanora¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: Jonathan England| T: S England

100/1

Unplaced in 3 points and well held in as many starts under Rules.

Form: 56-5590

Doireann³⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 10-11| J: C Gethings| T: S Edmunds

17/2

Shirocco filly. Dam unraced sister to fairly useful hurdler/smart chaser (2m/17f winner) An Cathaoir Mor. Third sole start in Irish points and offered something to work on when third at Chepstow.

Form: 33

Forecasts

Moonamacaroona (4/5), Fairfield Ferrata (15/8), Doireann (17/2), Indian Glory (16/1), Tanora (100/1)

MOONAMACAROONA suffered an unfortunate incident on hurdles debut here a month ago, stumbling and unseating rider, and this looks an ideal opportunity to get back on track. Fairfield Ferrata is the obvious threat.
