Approaching Star303
Age: 6|  Weight: 10-10| J: R T Dunne| T: D Burchell| OR:  92
8/1
Starts back off a long absence and is still a maiden under both codes although she was third in this race last year. Would have a chance on that form in a weak race such as this and can't be discounted easily.

Horse silk
Celestial Dancert,v128
Age: 5|  Weight: 10-10| J: Tom Humphries(7)| T: N & W Twiston-Davies
7/1
Beaten a long way on her hurdles debut but that was in a better contest than this and repeat of that run with a visor on for the first time may well see her go close here.
4
Horse silk
Izzy Piccolina382
Age: 9|  Weight: 10-10| J: Dave Crosse| T: G Deacon| OR:  83
9/1
Not seen for a while now and remains a maiden over obstacles and more needed to put her in with a chance here even in this grade.

Horse silk
Marienstart16
Age: 6|  Weight: 10-10| J: R P McLernon| T: Alexandra Dunn| OR:  105
11/8
Type this yard do well with and there have been some glimpses of form when she ran in Ireland. Makes her stable debut with a tongue tie (worn on first two starts back on) and well worth watching in the market given the scenario and connections.

Horse silk
Queen Of Epirus105
Age: 9|  Weight: 10-10| J: Liam McKenna(7)| T: N J Hawke| OR:  80
2/1
This yard have done well over the winter/spring especially with the horses that they run away from their West Country base. This one is still a maiden but her last run (back in February) came behind a subsequent dual handicap hurdles winner and a repeat of that run would see her go close here.

Forecasts

Marienstar (11/8), Queen Of Epirus (2/1), Celestial Dancer (7/1), Approaching Star (8/1), Izzy Piccolina (9/1), Ede's The Business (33/1)

Verdict

Not the greatest of races and a couple of these are quite poor but the Alex Dunn debutante Marienstar is interesting with the tongue-tie back on and the yard can get one like this ready. Celestial Dancer drops in grade and needs respecting on that one hurdles run with Approaching Star given a chance based on her run in this last year. Overall though if she is ready to go QUEEN OF EPIRUS is given the vote with her handicap run last time being some of the best form on offer here as she drops in grade.
  1. Queen Of Epirus
  2. Marienstar
  3. Celestial Dancer
