Out of an unraced half-sister to 2m-2m4f hurdle and useful chase winner Jet Master, out of a half-sister to the dam of classy staying chaser Burton Port, from the family of Grade One winner Blazing Walker. Nice pedigree then and a market check is advised for this debut outing in a hood.
Well beaten in a Wetherby bumper on debut and then when tried for the first time over hurdles at Cartmel last month (2m6f, good to soft). Dropped in trip here, which is slightly at odds with what her pedigree tells us is likely to be her best trip and looks best watched today.
Fontwell bumper winner (2m1½f, good to soft) who put up one of the better pieces of form on offer here when a 6L runner-up at Cartmel (2m6f, good to soft) last month. A repeat or better here would make her very competitive.
16-race maiden but showed better form that most of these when runner-up at Cartmel (2m6f, good to soft) in a novices' hurdle last time, despite being beaten 20L. Probably has frame claims again.
Won a Lingfield bumper in January (2m, AW) and ran welll here over 1m7½f last time, when a ½L runner-up in a novices' hurdle. The step up in trip is likely to elicit some improvement and she looks the one to beat.
Forecasts
Polly's Pursuit (4/7), Dont Tell Val (13/8), Insight (20/1), Ask Catkin (20/1), Barely Black (50/1), Dudette (66/1)
POLLY'S PURSUIT looks to have been found a good opportunity to add to her bumper success here now that she is upped in trip, while Dont Tell Val can probably follow her home. Also vying for prize money is Insight, while Ask Catkin looks one to keep an eye on in the market in a weak affair.
