Thoroughbred Breeders' Association Mares' Handicap Hurdle

Off time: 16:15 | Winning time: 4m 46.6s

Outonpatrol²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Alexander Thorne⁽⁵⁾| T: A King| OR: 120

10/3

Proved a different proposition switched to handicaps after 10 months off when scoring at Warwick (21f) in September. Improved further when third at Lingfield since and there's better still to come.

Form: 7/824-13

Rose To Fame^p,t¹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: David Bass| T: K Bailey & M Nicholls| OR: 118| C

4/1

Bounced back to form on the back of another breathing operation to win 8-runner handicap over C&D 15 days ago, forging clear. That wasn't a deep race but she clearly goes well at this venue.

Form: 611/601

Miss Tynte^p,t²¹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: Kieron Edgar| T: D Pipe| OR: 117

33/1

Resumed winning ways at Plumpton in December. Shaped as if needing the run on Fontwell return and can probably have latest effort at Lingfield overlooked, having raced very wide. Cheekpieces refitted.

Form: 4417-79

Pogo I Am²⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: Bryan Carver⁽⁵⁾| T: H Fry| OR: 112| BF

9/2

Left hurdling debut form behind when landing a maiden at Stratford in July. Dispelled a poor run when third at Warwick but could run to only a similar level on handicap debut (2m) last time.

Form: 43-1P34

Frau Georgia^p,t¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: T Scudamore| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 112

10/3

Winner at Perth in September and resumed progress in first-time cheekpieces when second to the progressive Oscars Moonshine at Wincanton (21.4f) 18 days ago, clear of rest. Respected from 5 lb higher.

Form: 776-132

She's Gina^p²⁶⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 10-12| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton| OR: 106

7/1

Out of sorts when last seen but starts life for new yard on a handy mark so well worth noting, particularly should the market speak in her favour.

Form: 10208P-

Feuille De Chene^t1³⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 10-11| J: R Johnson| T: P Hobbs & J White| OR: 105

13/2

Dual bumper winner who hinted at promise when in frame first two runs over hurdles. Has essentially been disappointing in handicaps since but it's still too soon to be writing her off. Tongue tie on.

Form: 21/438-8

Solstalla^p³⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 10-7| J: Page Fuller| T: D Weston| OR: 101| D

28/1

Successful for the fifth time in this sphere back from a break at Warwick (19f) in September. However, failed to fire at Exeter next time and she's probably worth taking on.

Form: 40-2710

Non-Runners

Miss Farage⁸²

Weight: 11-8| Age: 5

T: N J Henderson J: Non Runner

Kingsmill Gin²⁴⁰

Weight: 10-3| Age: 7

T: Miss J Du Plessis J: James Best

Forecasts

Miss Farage (3/1), Outonpatrol (10/3), Frau Georgia (10/3), Rose To Fame (4/1), Pogo I Am (9/2), Feuille De Chene (13/2), She's Gina (7/1), Kingsmill Gin (20/1), Solstalla (28/1), Miss Tynte (33/1)

There's better still to come from OUTONPATROL, so she shades the vote with the Alan King yard going well. She's Gina has fallen to a good mark and looks interesting on first run for Dan Skelton, while Frau Georgia found only the progressive Oscars Moonshine too strong at Wincanton last time.
