7/4 |
Crystal Spring
Made all, fending off the challenge of her main market rival at Huntingdon (2m3f, mares' maiden; 4-5 favourite) in October; bettered that on RPRs when runner-up on handicap debut at Exeter (2m2f) subsequently; the incurred penalty and this extra yardage could make her vulnerable.

Pottersville
Ready debut bumper winner (Clonmel, 2m4f); not at her best on seasonal reappearance (first run for this trainer) at Newbury (2m) but quickly left that behind to win by 24l at Exeter (2m7f, good to soft; 17-2, with Kilworth third) a few weeks later; obvious chance despite a penalty.

Where's Cato
Modest start under rules at Chepstow (2m3f, good; last of five, 16-1) in October; fared better, justifying market support, in a five-runner mares' maiden at Exeter (2m5f, good to firm; 6-4 favourite) nine days later; is penalised in different conditions; a tougher test awaits.

Betty's Daisy
Made a stylish winning debut at Warwick (2m bumper, soft) in February but that form has taken various knocks; well beaten on last month's hurdles debut back at Warwick (2m3f; 7-2); a monitoring brief is advised in a newly applied tongue-tie.

Connies Hill
Won a 3m point at Ballindenisk in May; disappointed - last of nine - on rules/stable debut at Sandown (2m bumper, good to soft; 12-1; lost a hind shoe) six weeks ago; has since had wind surgery and is now fitted with a tongue-tie for hurdles debut; this is a more suitable trip.

Country Mouse
Changed hands for 20,000 soon after winning a two-finisher 3m mares' maiden point at Ballyvodock in February; down the field in a Cheltenham bumper in April and among the backmarkers on recent hurdles debut at Newbury (2m; 125-1); look elsewhere.

Diamonds Galore
Runner-up at Uttoxeter (2m bumper) on New Year's Eve, but ended her season on a downbeat note (pulling up on hurdle debut at Huntingdon); following wind surgery she made a good fist of things on her return at Worcester (2m; runner-up, 6-1) in October; extra yardage within range on pedigree.

Gaelic Saint
Placed in two of three bumpers, runner-up at Hereford (2m, good; 9-2) in March; outperformed the market expectations when occupying that same position on hurdles debut at Warwick (2m3f; 50-1, in a newly applied hood) 27 days ago; could easily build on that here; every chance.

Kilworth
Point winner (3m); beaten when falling at the last on hurdles debut at Stratford (2m6f; 5-1) in October; plugged on into a distant third to Pottersville at Exeter (2m7f; beaten 27l) latest; will soon be eligible for a mark.

- No Flies On Her
- J J Burke / F O'brien

7/1 |
No Flies On Her
Debut point winner (3m) in May 2024; joined Fergal O'Brien soon after for 50,000; probably needed her comeback run at Uttoxeter (bumper) in October, and her third at Warwick (3-1 favourite) was better; dangerous to dismiss now up in trip for hurdles debut.

Rene's Walk
Respectable efforts in bumpers but weak in the market on recent hurdles debut at Huntingdon (2m; sixth, 9-1); improvement necessary but could be forthcoming with that comeback run banked; this longer trip looks a much better fit on pedigree.

Rosa Diaz
Narrow winner of 3m point (mares' maiden) at Boulta last November; changed hands for 32,000; set to make rules/hurdles debut in a hood and tongue-tie with fitness taken on trust; the market likely the best place to offer advice.

Wishful Wings
Modest point form, beaten 40l when runner-up at Ballingarry (3m; 10-1) in May; others tick way more boxes based on all known evidence.
