5/2
Getaway half-sister to bumper winner One Cool Scorpion, and shaped well when third of 16 to Coquelicot in mares bumper at Huntingdon last month. Seems sure to build on that.

66/1
Out of a half-sister to Best Mate, but this mare showed very little on her racecourse debut at Fakenham last month. May do better given her pedigree, but has to leave that effort well behind.
3
Horse silk
Cimetta38
Age: 5|  Weight: 10-12| J: Henry Brooke| T: M Herrington
25/1
Half-sister to a bumper winner, and she showed plenty to work on when staying on into fifth of 16 to Coquelicot in mares bumper at Huntingdon last month. Should improve, and each-way claims.

11/4
Yeats mare who won a 3m mares' maiden at Liscarroll for Sam Curling. Beaten favourite at Uttoxeter on bumper debut, and now wears a tongue tie after wind surgery. On to note.
5
Horse silk
8/1
Fame And Glory half-sister to bumper winner Now Look At Me out of a half-sister to Thyestes Chase winner My Murphy. Should have a future over obstacles, and merits a market check on debut.
6
Horse silk
14/1
Much better effort in bumpers when 10½L third of 11 to Miss Austen in mares event at Ludlow last time. Place claims with a repeat, but may be vulnerable to unexposed rivals.
7
Horse silk
66/1
Related to winners, but looked badly in need of the experience when seventh of 9 to Animal in a C&D bumper last month. May do better with experience.
8
Horse silk
9/2
From a family connections have done very well with, and well backed when winning maiden bumper at Fakenham by 3½L from Fantastikas. Should improve on that, and respected despite her penalty.
Valirann half-sister to Tolworth Hurdle winner Fiddlerontheroof. Appeals on paper, although concerning that she pulled up in a point-to-point last month.
10
Horse silk
33/1
Shirocco half-sister to bumper winner Stoner's Choice out of a bumper winner. Yard not known for success in this sphere, and this filly may be one for further down the line.
Spanish Moon half-sister to very smart chaser Acapella Bourgeois and winning French chaser Bella Bourgeoise. Appeals on paper, although yard has a modest strike-rate in bumpers.
12
Horse silk
100/1
Full-sister to a point-to-point winner, and looked short of pace when beaten a long way on her bumper debut at Huntingdon last month. Likely to need time and distance.
13
Horse silk
25/1
Out of owners' staying chaser Epee Celeste. Shaped better than the distance beaten when fifth to Nada To Prada at Warwick on her bumper debut, and should do better.

Forecasts

Allavina (5/2), Forthegreatergood (11/4), Martello Sky (9/2), Back On The Bridle (7/1), Mosambo (8/1), Shiroccsmyworld (14/1), Gazette Bourgeoise (20/1), Midnight Mary (25/1), Cimetta (25/1), Fine By Her (33/1), Veshenskaya (66/1), Catmygirl (66/1), Just Tottie (100/1)

Verdict

ALLAVINA represents a yard in fine form, and shaped very well when third on her debut at Huntingdon. She will progress and is preferred to the penalised Martello Sky. Forthegreatergood could be a big danger having had wind surgery aftre finishing third on debut when well supported.
  1. Allavina
  2. Forthegreatergood
  3. Martello Sky
