Form: P-

Get In Robin³⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: B S Hughes| T: D McCain Jnr

11/4

Winning pointer who showed some promise in bumpers and did the same sent hurdling when third 4¾ lengths third of 11 in a mares novice here (16.7f, heavy) last month. Open to improvement.

Form: F/14-33

Go Millie Go²⁸⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 10-12| J: C Gethings| T: S Edmunds| OR: 115

4/1

From the family of top-class hurdler/very smart chaser Time For Rupert and displayed clear promise over hurdles last season, still green when third at Ludlow final outing. Remains with potential.

Form: 462/523-

Just A Sip^t1²⁴⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: Adrian Heskin| T: W GreatrexWS

22/1

Well beaten in bumpers but she's bred for jumping and hinted at ability when a well-beaten sixth of 11 on Wincanton hurdling debut in January. Has had a wind op and wears first-time tongue tie.

Form: 0/86-

Lex Eleven²²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton

16/1

Showed plenty when runner-up in a Sedgefield bumper on debut but could only manage modest form in 2 hurdle runs, though not knocked about. Handicaps presumably up after this.

Form: 2867-

Mac Kayla³¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: Adam Wedge| T: Evan Williams

50/1

Comes from a good jumping family but has shown only minor promise in a pair of bumpers and Chepstow maiden hurdle so far. Off 10 months.

Form: 6/88-

Reassurance^p¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: Henry Brooke| T: D Brooke

14/1

Fair on Flat (stays 16.5f), won twice in 2020. Showed an aptitude for hurdling in cheekpieces when third on recent hurdle bow at Hexham but this looks a stronger race.

Form: 3

Roseisaroseisarose²²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: Benjamin Poste| T: Katy Price

11/1

Fair in bumpers and showed aptitude for hurdling when 27 lengths seventh of 13 in a Doncaster novice in February. Should do better.

Form: 2/42667-

Whoopsey²⁰⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: R Johnson| T: H D Daly

25/1

Showed ability on the first of her 2 bumpers runs and made some late ground despite jumping violently left at nearly every flight on her Wincanton hurdle bow in March. Up in trip and should improve.

Form: 40/5-

Wynn House²⁹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: Tom Cannon| T: A King

13/8

Overcame inexperience to make a winning bumper debut at Uttoxeter. Second both starts since, including in a Huntingdon listed event latest, so likely type now hurdling up in trip.

Form: 1/22-

Forecasts

Wynn House (13/8), Get In Robin (11/4), Go Millie Go (4/1), Roseisaroseisarose (11/1), Reassurance (14/1), Lex Eleven (16/1), Just A Sip (22/1), Whoopsey (25/1), Mac Kayla (50/1), Capricia (66/1), Dainty Doris (300/1), Control Me (300/1)

WYNN HOUSE and Go Millie Go easily make the most appeal with the narrow vote going to the former, who is from a good jumping family and displayed plenty of promise in a trio of bumpers. Get In Robin looks best of the rest.
