1-6 over fences; returned to form of late and although a beaten favourite when runner-up at Fakenham (2m5f, good) last month, that was still a creditable effort; tongue-tie now added; the one to beat.

Comment

Close third in valuable mares' chase at Market Rasen last month; ought to be hard to beat

Showed promise in maiden/novice hurdles before running respectably when third on handicap debut at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) in March; finished weakly over a slightly longer trip at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) the following month but has since undergone wind surgery; now switches to fences from what looks a workable mark (eased 2lb) and commands respect.

Comment

Need to find a bit with Onefournine on the figures but should be thereabouts.

Stable Tour

"Fourth in an Ascot bumper before we bought her, she's a big, strong, scopey mare who will qualify for the GBB bonus if she wins a bumper, so we'll try and get a few quid in the pot for the team. It's early days but all's well so far. 10-11-25"

Spotlight

Well-bred mare; kept on for a respectable third on handicap hurdle debut at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good) last month and shaped reasonably well on chase debut at Stratford (2m1f, good to firm) where she jumped soundly; pedigree suggests this longer trip should suit and a first-time hood may also eke out a little more, now eased 2lb.

Comment

Kept on for third on recent handicap hurdle debut; could have more to offer over fences

Spotlight

Irish raider; 13-race maiden whose best effort came over hurdles when a close second at Tramore (2m5f, good) last August, but three attempts over fences have seen her pulled up twice and tailed off once; Sean Bowen booked and, while a return to better ground and handicap company may help, she still has plenty to prove.

Comment

Best hurdles run when second at this venue last August, no impact in two races over fences
