Taking winner of Worcester novice chase before following up in 2¾m Uttoxeter handicap last month. Unseated at Warwick last time but will be a threat granted a clear round here.

Quickly made up into a fairly useful hurdler last term, though disappointed on handicap bow when last seen in May. Still, she remains low-mileage and may do better still now chasing on return.

5/2
Fair hurdler who has taken well to fences, again finding just one too good at Cheltenham (20.6f) recently. Mark unchanged and she's likely to give another good account.

Yet to match French hurdles form in 3 starts on this side of the Channel, though there were positives to glean from her reappearance effort at Fontwell and she's worth a second look on chase debut.

3/1
Point/bumper winner who landed a mares' handicap hurdle here (21.3f) in February. Always on the back foot starting out over fences at Cheltenham but can be expected to improve on that.

Bumper/fairly useful hurdles winner who, on the back of a wind op, ran creditably when fifth in 9-runner Lingfield handicap hurdle (19.5f) in November. Improvement needed now switched to fences.

ROSE OF ARCADIA was always on the backfoot having clouted the first on chase debut at Cheltenham recently. However, this ex-pointer remains one to be positive about and, returned to the scene of her sole success over hurdles, she's worth another chance to get back on the up. Little River Bay, who is 2-3 in this sphere, and Precious Eleanor head up the dangers.

  1. ROSE OF ARCADIA (IRE)
  2. LITTLE RIVER BAY (IRE)
  3. PRECIOUS ELEANOR (FR)
