Just modest form at best in 3 bumper outings and given a considerate introduction to hurdling on the back of 3 months off/a wind op at Kempton (2m) in March. Clearly derived plenty from that as she found only one too good at Warwick 2 months later.
|
Runner-up completed start in Irish points (March 2023) but only minor promise under Rules so far, showing a bit more but no match for the principals on last month's return to action.
|
Blue Bresil mare. Dam, bumper/fair 2m hurdle winner, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler (stayed 27f) Trackmate and bumper winner/useful hurdler (stayed 25f) Desilvano. Well held both starts.
|
£60,000 4-y-o, Jukebox Jury mare. Placed both starts in points and despite showing inexperience, she won 13-runner bumper at Hereford in March. Found out in a better race at Punchestown 2 months later but has to be of interest at this level now hurdling.
|
Dam, maiden on Flat, closely related to very smart hurdler/useful chaser (stayed 21f) Nicanor: Third both starts in Irish points in late-2022 but off a long time and limited promise on last month's hurdles debut.
|
Half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/fair chaser Feel The Pinch and bumper winner Billams Legacy. Best of those held up when second in a bumper at Wetherby in November and again shaped well when occupying same spot 2 months later. Good platform for hurdling.
|
Related to winners and made a successful start herself at Aintree a year ago. Solid efforts to hit the frame at listed level later that season and makes hurdles debut for bang in-form yard.
|
Placed on her sole outing in points and sound start to her Rules career with a brace of runner-up efforts in bumpers during the spring. One to consider now hurdling with a tongue tie on.

Forecasts
Queens Melody (15/8), Sunset Marquesa (5/2), Walkadina (10/3), Irish Chorus (7/1), Roses All The Way (8/1), Seas The Day (17/2), Longhouse Legacy (14/1), Made For Me (50/1), Primary Explosive (200/1), Royal Malinas (300/1)
This looks wide open but SUNSET MARQUESA displayed plenty of ability in bumpers last season and returning with her yard in fine form, she could be the answer. Queens Melody and Seas The Day also displayed plenty of ability in that sphere and rate likely types, too.
