4/1

Harzand mare. Dam, bumper winner, is a half-sister to useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 3m) Highway One O One. Yard boasts a decent strike rate in bumpers and this one needs a close look in the betting.

3/1

Jack Hobbs mare. Half-sister to bumper winners Betty's Tiara and Betty's Belle. Dam was a maiden hurdler who stayed 25f. Represents a respected, in-form yard and it'll be interesting to see how she shapes up in the betting.

Form:

Blacksambelle¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: Benjamin Poste| T: J G M O'Shea

300/1

No show in 2 bumpers 10 months apart and it's easy enough to look elsewhere.

Form: 9-0

Claim Du Brizais¹¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton

15/8

Cost £130,000 after finishing second in an Irish point almost a year ago and made a positive start under Rules when third in a Class 2 Aintree bumper in October. Looked green that day and may well do better with that experience to draw upon here.

Form: 2-3

Jonquilla

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: K Brogan| T: Mrs S J Humphrey

16/1

Fetched €95,000 as a 3-y-o but yard's record in bumpers is off-putting.

Form:

Lady Genever⁶⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Freddie Gordon⁽³⁾| T: C Gordon

50/1

Nearer last than first on her introduction in a Plumpton bumper and newcomer Aj's Diamond is presumably the stable first-string.

Form: 8

Rightofway⁴⁷¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: Kielan Woods| T: A M Hales

17/2

Offered plenty to work on when fourth of 16 on her debut over this C&D in November 2023. Subsequent absence a worry but she certainly would't be without each-way hope if able to build on that following a 15-month absence.

Form: 4-

Stylish Composer

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: James Bowen| T: N J Henderson

5/1

Half-sister to fairly useful hurdler Corinto. Dam unraced sister to useful hurdler/chaser (winner up to 2½m) Bedlam Boy. Hails from a top yard but jockey bookings point to Uptown Lass being the stable No 1.

Forecasts

Claim Du Brizais (15/8), Hill In Brazil (9/4), Betty's Daisy (3/1), Aj's Diamond (4/1), Stylish Composer (5/1), Uptown Lass (7/1), Rightofway (17/2), Jonquilla (16/1), Emerald Jewel (20/1), Full Of Charm (25/1), Lady Genever (50/1), Blacksambelle (300/1)

It was probably a stronger race than this in which CLAIM DU BRIZAIS was an encouraging third on her Rules debut at Aintree and, provided all is well back from a 117-day break, she could take some stopping. Uptown Lass was also pitched into a higher grade contest for her introduction and, given the prowess of her yard, she can be expected to do better, while newcomers Aj's Diamond, Betty's Daisy and Uptown Lass's stablemate Stylish Composer all need a close look in the betting.
