9/2
Six-time winner over fences and hurdles, her latest success was at Uttoxeter in July (2m7½f, good to soft) from 6lb lower. Went very close from today's mark over fences in the spring and goes on any ground. Should be competitive.

5/1
Bumper winner who has been campaigned over further than this trip for over a year now and been very competitive. Well held (beaten 30L) from this mark at Sedgefield last time out and has a bit to find now dropped in trip.

2/1
Won twice over this trip at Wincanton last autumn (on a sound/fast surface) and kept on improving. Not able to cut the mustard at Grade 2 and Listed level, but this is more like it and she looks short-list material.

15/8
Has really hit her straps of late, winning a novices' maiden hurdle at Worcester by 19L and following-up in convincing fashion in a Fontwell handicap hurdle (2m5½f, good) last time. Up 9lb and in grade, so more needed, but not ruled out.

14/1
Acts on fast ground and stays at least this far. Was beaten just 1L from this mark over 2m4f at Worcester in the summer, so has the ability to have a say, though off the boil lately. Tongue tie and hood combi now tried in a bid for a revival.

Forecasts

Poetic Lady (15/8), On Demand (2/1), Still Believing (9/2), Miss Mobot (5/1), Miss Spent (5/1), Over The Air (14/1)

Verdict

A nice little pot up for grabs in this and the suggestion is ON DEMAND, who did well this time last year and should find this easier than the company she was keeping at the end of last season. Poetic Lady is improving and merits respect, while Still Believing could get involved and Over The Air is not ruled out if the headgear has a positive effect.
  1. On Demand
  2. Poetic Lady
  3. Still Believing
