Coillte Lass47
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-5| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: P F Nicholls| OR:  137
6/1
Very progressive mare who landed a Listed novices' contest (good) at Taunton last time and should continue to climb the ladder, irrespective of today's outcome.

Horse silk
Vroum Vroum Mag48
Age: 8|  Weight: 11-5| J: Paul Townend| T: W P Mullins| OR:  154
1/5
Hugely talented performer whose last three outings over hurdles have yielded Grade One successes, including against her own sex at last year's Cheltenham Festival. Effective at all trips from this distance up to 3m and despite the potential of others it is impossible to oppose her today.
3
Horse silk
Intense Tangot17
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-0| J: B S Hughes| T: K R Burke| OR:  138
25/1
Rated 121 when winning this race two years ago, though has failed to add to that success over jumps when taking on top company since. No surprise if she runs well but up against it today.
4
Horse silk
Late Night Lily44
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-0| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton| OR:  128
20/1
Lowest-rated in the field, though comes here in tremendous form, having won her last four completed outings, including a ten length Southwell handicap success last time. Huge ask for her to bridge the gap here, though can't be ruled out where black type is concerned.
5
Horse silk
Midnight Jazz48
Age: 7|  Weight: 11-0| J: Kielan Woods| T: B I Case| OR:  140
17/2
Won 2m 3.5f handicap hurdle here (good) last month from a mark of 136 and a very consistent performer. A true race would be to her advantage and she is just as likely as anything to give the hotpot most to do.

Forecasts

Vroum Vroum Mag (1/5), Coillte Lass (6/1), Midnight Jazz (17/2), Late Night Lily (20/1), Intense Tango (25/1)

Verdict

Great to see VROUM VROUM MAG line-up, although unless something unforseen occurs it effectively mean the others are racing for place money as the talented mare is impossible to oppose. Midnight Jazz is a tough sort who is likely to be involved in the battle for minor honours along with the rising star Coillte Lass. 1. Vroum Vroum Mag 2. Midnight Jazz 3. Coillte Lass
