Age: 5| Weight: 12-0| J: Brendan Powell| T: O Sherwood| OR: 98

4/1

Overcame inexperience to make winning debut in a Plumpton bumper a year ago and solid start over hurdles when runner-up in a Hereford novice in October (shaped like a stayer). Well held in 2 quick runs the following month and looked in need of this test when third on handicap debut. Cheekpieces on.

5/2

Produced just about her best effort yet when runner-up at Plumpton (25f, good) in October and she stuck to her task well when fifth in a better race than this on last month's return to action, Major claims of shedding maiden tag.

Forecasts

Monty's Award (2/1), Milanese Rose (5/2), Baby Sham (4/1), Times Are Blue (4/1), Here's Bingo (12/1), Pour Une Raison (20/1)

MILANESE ROSE has yet to win a race but probably won't get a better chance in truth on the back of an encouraging reappearance in a deeper handicap than this at Huntingdon last month. This is unlikely to be a thorough test at the trip, so Baby Sham's relative speed brings her firmly into the mix.
