9/1

€47,000 3-y-o, £60,000 5-y-o, Milan mare. Dam, fair maiden over hurdles (stayed 2½m), is a half-sister to useful hurdle winner/chaser (stayed 3¾m) Heathfield. This winning Irish pointer can make her presence felt on her hurdling debut.

Butterflycollector²⁴¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: Brendan Powell| T: J Tizzard

17/2

Related to numerous winners and showed some promise in 2m4f Plumpton novice 8 months ago, in fifth when fell last flight. Yard is going well so one to consider.

Form: 6/0F-

El Fabienne^t⁷⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: C Gethings| T: A Ralph| BF

16/1

Modest form shown in a trio of bumpers for Willie Mullins. More is needed now going over hurdles for her new handler.

Form: 2/5-47

Game Colours^t²⁴²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: Ben Jones| T: Ben Clarke

7/1

Had a wind op before a fair third of 9 in novice hurdle at Doncaster (19.4f, heavy) 8 months ago. Needs considering.

17/2

Runner-up in an Irish point before seventh of 10 in bumper at Uttoxeter (15.8f, heavy) 6 months ago. Can't be dismissed on her hurdles bow stepping up in trip.

Portobello Girl²³⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Murray Dodd⁽⁷⁾| T: A Ralph

10/1

Hinted at promise in a pair of bumpers for Nigel Twiston-Davies last spring. No forlorn hope now starting out in this sphere for her new stable.

Form: 45-

Springs A Girl²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Daire James McConville⁽⁷⁾| T: M Keighley

80/1

A fair bumper winner but she was hooded when unseating her rider 2nd in novice at Chepstow (19.4f, good to soft) on her hurdles bow 20 days ago.

Form: 109-U

Tintagel Queen³⁴⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: S Bowen| T: O Murphy

7/2

Made a promising start when third of 8 in novice hurdle (8/1) at Lingfield (19.5f, good to soft) on her hurdles bow. Off 11 months but she should still progress.

Form: 52/3-

Troubleisontheway^t1³⁶⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Jonjo O'Neill Jr.| T: J & A O'Neill

40/1

40/1 and hooded, thirteenth of 16 in bumper at Chepstow 12 months ago. Lots more is required on her hurdles debut.

2/1

3/1, shaped well when second of 10 in novice hurdle at Perth (20.2f, good to soft) on her hurdles bow 169 days ago. The form pick.

All Inn Hand¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: James Bowen| T: P & M Bowen

40/1

Forecasts

Wednesday Addams (2/1), Tintagel Queen (7/2), Game Colours (7/1), Butterflycollector (17/2), Honeywort (17/2), Boombox Baby (9/1), Portobello Girl (10/1), Cheeky Lady (10/1), El Fabienne (16/1), All Inn Hand (40/1), Troubleisontheway (40/1), Springs A Girl (80/1)

WEDNESDAY ADDAMS made a promising start in this sphere when third at Perth and can build on it to open her account at the chief expense of Tintagel Queen, who has an absence to overcome but remains with a fair bit of potential. Game Colours is another with the form to play her part, while Cheeky Lady and Butterflycollector can't be dismissed either in this very open maiden.
