Horse A-Z
Half-sister to a 1m4f Flat and 2m4f hurdle winner in Flower Power, with dam a full-sister to 2m6f hurdle winner Lyrical Lily and a half-sister to the decent bumper and 2m6f hurdles winner Maybe The Business. Yard does reasonably well in this sphere, though not had a recent runner.

£15,000 purchase as a three-year-old and must have been showing something at home to have been started in a Listed bumper at Huntingdon in December (6th of seven, beaten 28L). Also well beaten in hood at Doncaster last time and hope to see more from her this time.

8/1
€37,000 as a two-year-old out of a 1m4f French Flat winner and half-sister to a 1m-1m5f Flat/jump winner in Vishnu. Last of seven on debut for Charlie Longsdon in October and makes first start for a yard that does well with its mares today.

Half-sister to bumper and decent 2m3f-3m hurdle and chase winner Killala Quay. Made some improvement from first run to second, but needs to improve on the latter to have any chance of figuring in the places here.

10/1
Dam was a winner from 1m2½f-1m4f on AW and related to Group One winner Kalanisi and this filly was given a nice educational debut at Wetherby last month. Likely to improve for that and no surprise to see her involved.
6
Horse silk
4/1
Improved for her Wetherby debut when appearing at Catterick last month, but perhaps anchored by the heavy ground at Ayr last time. Likely to do better over hurdles and perhaps best watched on this final bumper start.

Half-sister to three winners, including one of a bumper and represents a stable with an 11% strike rate in this discipline. Looks to have a bit to find with some of these on her form so far, but can continue to show improvement.
Cost just €5,200 as a foal. Dam was a bumper and 2m-2m1f hurdle winner, closely related to two other bumpers winners. Yard running at 19% in bumpers, although not had a winner of any sort lately.

4/1
Price tag reduced from €28,000 as a yearling to €15,000 at two. Half-sister to a 2m3f Listed hurdle winner and also the 2m-2m3f hurdle and chase winner Calipto. Yard running a 14% strike rate in bumpers, though not on song at present.

Forecasts

Presenting Pearl (7/2), Vbadge Treat (4/1), Northern Girl (4/1), Melangerie (5/1), No No Jolie (8/1), Doctor Thea (10/1), Potters Sapphire (14/1), Creole Dancer (22/1), Bury The Evidence (50/1)

Verdict

Melangerie has not yet measured up to expectations and can't be backed with confidence, despite her trainer's record in this discipline and the suggestion is DOCTOR THEA, who can improve for her Wetherby debut to take this. Potters Sapphire is likely to get involved, while Presenting Pearl and No No Jolie are others who catch the eye from the card.
  1. Doctor Thea
  2. Melangerie
  3. Potters Sapphire
