A Chara
Won slow-ground Irish point in March and shaped fairly well before weakening into well-held fourth on last month's stable/hurdle debut at Sedgefield (2m4f, soft); needs improvement here but has potential.

Blue Marvel
Placed on bumper debut at Market Rasen (good) in July and wasn't disgraced when midfield at Warwick (good to soft) last month but needs to take a big step forward on this hurdling debut.

Chatty Girl
Won soft-ground Newbury bumper a year ago and made quite pleasing seasonal/hurdle debut when second at Windsor (2m, good to soft) three weeks ago; upped in trip here and ought to be on the premises again.

Noble Grace
Lost out only by a neck in 18-runner Cheltenham bumper (good ground) on debut in April but was weak in the betting and struggled to get competitive when switched to hurdles at Warwick (2m3f, good to soft) last month; not an easy one to predict here.

Queenofthejukebox
Dual bumper winner last season, latterly in quite valuable contest at Uttoxeter (good to soft); weakened into fourth when odds-on for seasonal/hurdle debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f, heavy) four weeks ago but certainly didn't run badly there and the less testing ground here might suit her better.

0-17 over hurdles and 0-17 on the Flat; well beaten off basement marks under both codes this autumn; makes no appeal.

Rosie Baloo
Kept on well for narrow win in good-ground course bumper on debut in June (form well advertised by runner-up this autumn) and very respectable third when switched to hurdling at Hexham (2m4f, good to soft) last month, where last-flight error magnified her margin of defeat; considered each-way.

Strong Run
Looked useful in bumpers last season and made pretty good start to hurdling career when keeping on to snatch third in Class 2 novice at Newbury (2m, good to soft) last month; bred to be suited by today's step up in trip and should be hard to beat in this easier race; tongue-tie added.
