14/1

Landed Irish mares maiden point-to-point 12 months ago but didn't show a great deal in two starts uner Rules for Colin Bowe. Makes debut here for top yard but will need to significantly raise her game to be a contender.

8/11

Hacked up in chasing bow at Warwick in Match when a 33/1 shot and has run two decent races in defeat in that sphere since. Switches back to hurdles here and may not be far away if things go her way.

Mega Move^t²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: Bridget Andrews| T: D Skelton

33/1

Poor form in three starts between the flags and looked moderate at best when tailed off on hurdles bow at Warwick earlier this month. One of three representing top yard but looks up against it.

Form: 6F4-5

Simply Loveleh^t²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton

2/1

Runner-up in two bumpers in November (including at this venue) and ran well enough when third over two miles on hurdles bow at Warwick last time to suggest she has strong claims here. Step up in trip should suit.

Form: 4/225-3

Splash The Cash⁶⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: Sean Quinlan| T: J Candlish| OR: 99

10/1

Fair effort when second at Musselburgh over this trip in March, and had yet to be asked the question when fallng 4 out there a few weeks later. Returns following break but has something to find on figures. Still open to a litle improvement though.

Forecasts

Lucca Lady (8/11), Yeavering Belle (13/8), Simply Loveleh (2/1), Splash The Cash (10/1), Do You Know What (14/1), Mega Move (33/1)

Dan Skelton runs three here but Simply Loveleh looks the pick of his trio and should go close. YEAVERING BELLE has shown a fair amount of ability however in her three bumpers and may well prove a tough nut to crack on hurdles bow. Lucca Lady looks best of the rest and is not at all out of it if carrying forward her recent improvement over fences to this hurdling sphere.
