Millies Mite^t⁵⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: James Best| T: K Jewell| OR: 100WS

50/1

Posted good fourth at Roscommon on her final run for Eoin Doyle but offered little on stable debut at Fakenham last month.

Form: 274548

Gaot^t³⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: K Brogan⁽³⁾| T: H Fry| OR: 97

9/4

French bumper winner who looks competitively handicapped and ran up to her best when third of 15 at Taunton (16.5f, soft) last month. Likely contender.

Form: 42-5263

Checkitsme¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-1| J: Mitchell Bastyan| T: M F Harris| OR: 89

8/1

Just about better than ever when gaining breakthrough win at Leicester (20.5f) last month and ran to similar level when third at Ffos Las (20f, soft) since. Should give another good account.

Form: 538813

Kahina Rules^p1²³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-1| J: T Scudamore| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 89

22/1

Solid form in a trio of bumpers but well held in 3 starts in this sphere. Cheekpieces applied for handicap debut.

Form: 424-050

Eventful²⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Nick Scholfield| T: J & S Best| OR: 88

4/1

Remains a maiden but shaped quite well when third of 11 in handicap hurdle over C&D (soft, 22/1) 26 days ago. Claims if building on that.

Form: 464-583

Bolt N Brown^b²⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: J E Moore| T: Miss Gay Kelleway| OR: 86| D

17/2

Not disgraced when returned to hurdling last month but has just sole success to her name after 35 attempts and makes limited appeal.

Form: 3526F5

Glorious Isolation⁶⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 10-4| J: Ben Godfrey⁽³⁾| T: A J Honeyball| OR: 78

18/1

Yet to show much over hurdles but hails from a shrewd yard and could offer more now sent handicapping.

Form: 90P

Devious Dicks Dame^h³²⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-0| J: James Davies| T: A Irvine| OR: 74| CD

33/1

Gained breakthrough success in a C&D selling handicap in November 2020 and run creditably when last seen here 10 months ago. Others more appealing, though.

Form: P/81525-

Amlovi¹⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 10-0| J: Benjamin Poste| T: A Wintle| OR: 72| CD

6/1

C&D winner who didn't take to chasing and has run solid races back in this sphere the last twice. Would likely prefer deeper ground, however. 2 lb out of the handicap.

Form: 3FP-P44

Baby Sham²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Sean Houlihan| T: J W Mullins| OR: 84

12/1

Fared a little better when 7½ lengths fifth of 11 to Checkitsme in handicap hurdle at Leicester (20.5f, heavy) latest and can't be ruled out. 2 lb out of the weights.

Form: 535535

Rubys Reward^t⁶²

Age: 6| Weight: 10-0| J: Rex Dingle| T: A J Honeyball| OR: 72

13/2

No real impact over hurdles thus far and suspicion she will come into her own over longer trips but worth a second look in the market on handicap debut. Tongue strap back on. 2 lb out of the weights.

Form: 45-050

Eva Icon²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: M Goldstein| T: Miss S West| OR: 60

100/1

Poor maiden on Flat for Mick Channon and has shown nothing in this sphere so far. Hard to make a strong case for on handicap bow from so far out of the weights.

Form: 0P0

Forecasts

Gaot (9/4), Eventful (4/1), Bella Beau (5/1), Amlovi (6/1), Rubys Reward (13/2), Checkitsme (8/1), Bolt N Brown (17/2), Baby Sham (12/1), Glorious Isolation (18/1), Kahina Rules (22/1), Devious Dicks Dame (33/1), Millies Mite (50/1), Eva Icon (100/1)

This can go to BELLA BEAU, who bounced back to form here last time and remains on a workable mark. Gaot and Checkitsme look the likeliest dangers.
