Am I Appropriate¹⁵³

Age: 4| Weight: 10-10| J: D A Jacob| T: B Pauling

9/2

Promising debut when finishing 8L second in a soft ground bumper at Southwell in June. Stable are in good form at present (4/14) and she is one for the shortlist on hurdling debut.

Form: 2

Kalarika²⁰³

Age: 4| Weight: 10-10| J: T J O'Brien| T: C L Tizzard

6/1

Signs of ability in two bumper outings in the spring most recently when third at Chepstow (good) in April. Interesting runner on her first outing over hurdles.

Form: 43-

Multigifted^t⁵¹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-10| J: M Goldstein| T: M Madgwick

7/1

Four time winner on the Flat including off a mark of 64 on soft ground in June. Probably best watched on today's hurdling debut.

5/1

Bumper winner at Market Rasen (good-to-soft) in April last year and placed in a Listed bumper and on heavy ground over hurdles since. Highly tried the last twice and interesting to see how she fares today.

Oscar Star²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 10-10| J: W Featherstone⁽⁵⁾| T: Jamie Snowden

16/1

Ran well in a couple of bumpers but disappointed on final outing in that sphere and finished a well held fifth on last months hurdling debut. More needed if she's to take this contest.

Form: 42-95

Queen Of The Wind¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 10-10| J: T Scudamore| T: C L Tizzard

33/1

Well held in a bumper at Stratford (good) on her racecourse debut early last month and was an early casualty when tackling hurdles for the first time subsequently. Probably best watched today.

Form: 0U

Roksana²³

Age: 5| Weight: 10-10| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton

9/4

Stepped up on her only start in bumpers when finishing a good third over an extended 2m3f at Chepstow (good-to-soft) on hurdling debut last month. Step up in trip looks likely to suit and represents a leading stable.

Form: 4-3

Swift Native¹⁹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-10| J: L P Aspell| T: N J Gifford

12/1

Put three non-completions behind her when winning a point-to-point at Largy (good-to-yielding) in April. Purchased for £20,000 subsequently and making her rules debut today.

Form: PUP1-

Tequila Secret¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 10-10| J: C Gethings⁽³⁾| T: N J Hawke

14/1

Improved on her bumper efforts when finishing third of 12 at Carlisle (2m1f, soft) on hurdling and stable debut last month. Tackling this trip for the first time and is an interesting runner in this contest.

Form: 493

Welcome Polly⁵⁷⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 10-10| J: P J Brennan| T: C J Mann

16/1

Well held third of three finishers in a point-to-point at Bellurgan Park (soft-to-heavy) on her sole start in that sphere in April last year. Bought for £14,000 subsequently and making her rules debut following a lengthy absence.

Form: 3/

Forecasts

Roksana (9/4), Am I Appropriate (9/2), Naranja (5/1), Kalarika (6/1), Multigifted (7/1), Swift Native (12/1), Tequila Secret (14/1), Oscar Star (16/1), Welcome Polly (16/1), Queen Of The Wind (33/1)

AM I APPROPRIATE shaped with promise when making her debut in a bumper in the spring and with trainer Ben Pauling in good form at present she can open her account at the first time of asking today. The selection attempted to make all on her debut and can get the better of Roksana who has the benefit of experience having finished third in a novice hurdle last month. Naranja drops in grade having contested Listed events on her last two outings and she can claim third on her seasonal debut.
