125/1

Cost £48,000 after finishing third in a point in April 2022 but not seen again until weakening tamely into a remote sixth in a Carlisle bumper last month. Tongue tie reached for now.

Form: 3/6

Heather Honey

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Ross Chapman| T: J Parkinson & S Smith

16/1

£6,000 3-y-o, Getaway mare. Dam unraced half-sister to useful hurdler (stayed 3m) Master Malt. Likely to need time.

Jasmine Bliss^t1⁴⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Paul O'Brien| T: Harry Derham

2/1

Bought for £50,000 after getting off the mark in Irish points at the third attempt in April and finished with running left when fourth at Ludlow on Rules debut. Open to improvement and worth chancing.

Form: 481-4

Lily Baloo²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Mr William Easterby⁽³⁾| T: T D Easterby

125/1

Dam (c113/h105), 21f-25f hurdle/chase winner, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/chaser (stays 25f) Betty Baloo. Only seventh at Catterick first time out and looks more one for the longer term.

Form: 7

Luna De Castana

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Adam Wedge| T: G Nicholls

10/3

Flemensfirth filly. Sister to bumper winner Fingle Bridge, and half-sister to smart hurdler/useful chaser Campeador, stayed 2½m. Dam lightly raced over hurdles in France. Notable newcomer on breeding.

Form:

Rhiannon Ring³²⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: Nick Scholfield| T: D Carroll

15/2

€85,000 3-y-o, Milan mare. Half-sister to bumper winner Knockanard Lady, stays 21f. Runner-up sole start in Irish points (Feb 2023). Interesting Rules newcomer.

Form: 2-

Sky's Your Limit¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Sam Coltherd| T: T Collier

250/1

Not much encouragement in two starts to date, looking in need of experience. Unlikely to feature.

Form: 77

The Secret Pearl²⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Harry Bannister| T: A M Hales

10/3

Runner-up on her final start in Irish points and made a solid start to her Rules career when 8 lengths second of 16 over C&D. Not quite in the same form at Plumpton next time but deserves respect nonetheless.

Form: 7U2-24

Wednesday Addams^t1⁶²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: G Sheehan| T: B I Case

6/1

£55,000 4-y-o, Telescope mare. Half-sister to a point winner. Dam (c125/h106) 2¼m/2½m hurdle/chase winner (stayed 31f). Wears tongue strap. Successful on last of 3 starts in Irish points (Nov 12).

Moveonbuy²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-5| J: Conor Rabbitt⁽⁵⁾| T: A Crook

Half-sister to a point winner and finished with running left when eighth at Newcastle first time out. Should do better but major step forward is required.

Forecasts

Jasmine Bliss (2/1), Luna De Castana (10/3), The Secret Pearl (10/3), Wednesday Addams (6/1), Rhiannon Ring (15/2), Pollyjo (14/1), Heather Honey (16/1), Wrappedinrubies (20/1), Isabel De Clare (20/1), Moveonbuy (66/1), Lily Baloo (125/1), Alltheroadrunning (125/1), Sky's Your Limit (250/1)

JASMINE BLISS joined a shrewd outfit after finishing second in an Irish point and she shaped with encouragement first time out, so she can improve enough to open her account. The Secret Pearl has achieved a bit more in form terms, so she's regarded as a danger and Wrappedinrubies is an interesting Rules newcomer.
