Off time: 13:21 | Winning time: 4m 23.9s

All Currencies²⁷¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Joshua Moore| T: G & J Moore

14/1

Had some fair form as a novice hurdler but did finish 65L behind Maria's Benefit at Taunton and now concedes a fitness advantage to that rival for her chase debut.

Form: 6/13417-

Jester Jet²⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-0| J: R T Dunne| T: T Lacey| OR: 142

11/4

Reached a mark of 142 over hurdles and shaped well on her chase debut behind Bags Groove who has won again since. Drop to this trip is a worry against this calibre of opponent.

Form: P217-22

King's Reste^t²⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton| OR: 115

40/1

Represents 2016's winning stable and has more chasing experience than most. Would be meeting most of these on better terms if this was a handicap.

Form: 112224

Lostnfound¹⁹³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: G Sheehan| T: Jamie Snowden

50/1

Not in the same league as the majority of these as a hurdler and she may want much softer ground.

Form: 5122P-6

Maria's Benefit³³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: C Gethings| T: S Edmunds| OR: 143| D

2/5

Top class hurdler, winner of the Grade 2 Mares Hurdle at Doncaster last year . Built for chasing and dominated her rivals in this sphere at Newton Abbot. Closely matched with Jester Jet on hurdle ratings but has the proven speed at this trip.

Form: 11114-1

Miss Night Owl¹⁵²

Age: 8| Weight: 11-0| J: J J Burke| T: T R George| OR: 125| D

33/1

Placed on both starts over fences but beaten 45L and 23L respectively. Has a big task if the principals are on song.

Form: 1/174-32

Forecasts

Maria's Benefit (2/5), Jester Jet (11/4), All Currencies (14/1), Miss Night Owl (33/1), King's Reste (40/1), Lostnfound (50/1)

MARIA'S BENEFIT and Jester Jet were the pick of these over hurdles and their chase form is superior too. The latter has earned her rating though over 2m4f and looked in need of even further on her chase debut. In contrast the selection is set up to show her rivals a clean pair of heels from the front having jumped boldly at Newton Abbot and that makes her hard to oppose.
