Selected odds by:
Resumed her progress after a break when landing 8-runner handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (20.6f, good to soft) 22 days ago. Well on top at the finish there so she's firmly in the mix despite taking a 6 lb rise.
|
Right back to her best when winning 3m handicap at Newbury in February but failed to back that up at Ludlow following month. More is needed after her break.
|
Scored at Lingfield in February but her run of good form ended when only sixth of 9 in handicap at Kelso (16.2f, soft) 37 days ago. Sort to bounce back.
|
Made a winning handicap debut at Ludlow in March and running with credit when saddle slipped and unseated rider last at Wincanton (19.8f, soft) 15 days ago. Considered.
|
Has failed to build on his Doncaster novice hurdle second, goint too keenly when last of 4 in handicap at Newbury (18.8f, good to firm) 59 days ago. Needs to take a step forward.
|
Fair form when runner-up first 2 starts over hurdles 21 months apart but hasn't made much of an impact since, pulled up at Southwell last time. Others appeal more.
|
Quirky sort who got back on track with emphatic success in 12-runner handicap hurdle at Ludlow (21.2f, good to soft) 5 days ago. Not ruled out under a 7 lb penalty.
|
Winless since 2021 but she posted a good third on Flat at Southwell (16.5f) 31 days ago. Much respected back in this sphere in first-time cheekpieces.
|
Cheekpieces on for 1st time when good second of 4 in handicap hurdle at Fontwell (17.7f, good to soft) 27 days ago. Not the easiest to predict so others are still preferred.
|
Easily got off the mark over hurdles in 2m4f Worcester novice back in July, 2021. Resumes on a very attractive-looking mark for her handicap debut so she's well worth siding with, especially if the market speaks in her favour.
|
Dual 2m5f Wincanton scorer in March but below-par fourth back chasing at Hereford (20.9f) 25 days ago. Not discounted reverted to hurdles.
|
Fair form to twice make the frame in maiden/novice hurdles this term but only seventh switched to handicap company at Uttoxeter and Huntingdon on her last 2 runs. Others look better treated at these weights.
|
Made a winning start over hurdles at Leicester (2m) in 2021 but her record has been patchy since. Others appeal more.
|
It's now 20 runs since her last win in 2019. Pulled up in handicap chase at Ludlow 152 days ago. Hard to warm to back in this sphere after another break.

Forecasts
Regal Renaissance (10/3), Blue Bikini (7/1), Cluain Aodha (7/1), Just Go For It (8/1), Passing Reflection (9/1), Walk Of No Shame (9/1), Lady Pacifico (10/1), Forthegreatergood (11/1), Flying Nun (14/1), Alchemystique (16/1), Energy One (16/1), Treefinch (25/1), Mistral Nell (25/1), Jacks Touch (28/1), Diamond Rose (100/1)
Fergal O'Brien looks to hold a strong hand here and his FORTHEGREATERGOOD could prove hard to peg back if she is on song after a long absence given her potentially very lenient opening handicap mark. Stablemate Blue Bikini looks the chief threat on the back of her emphatic Market Rasen success with Ludlow scorer Regal Renaissance the pick of the rest for place purposes.
