Classy sort in bumpers, winning a Listed one for mares at Sandown last year, and has continued that progression over hurdles, winning with some ease at Newcastle last time. Handles deep ground and seems to face a simple task here.

10/1
Some promise on debut over hurdles at Kelso in December but was well beaten when falling two out at Catterick on latest start, possibly finding trip too far. Booked for third here unless something happens to the principals.

Forecasts

The Nipper (1/14), Whatduhavtoget (15/8), Your Turn (10/1)

Verdict

This looks a match to all intents and purposes and possibly not much of one if THE NIPPER shows the form she's shown on her last two starts. This Graded bumper winner is progressing nicely now and can make it three on the bounce, Whatduhavtoget should be a clear second and, barring accidents, Your Turn looks booked for third.
  1. The Nipper
  2. Whatduhavtoget
  3. Your Turn
