Convivial¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: Miss Becky Smith⁽³⁾| T: Micky Hammond

80/1

Poor maiden on the Flat and well held in a brace of bumpers/novice hurdles.

Form: 6/960-96

Eeyore¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: D R Fox| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell| OR: 107

14/1

Showed fair form over hurdles when trained in France but has yet to fire for current stable.

Form: 422/P5-P

Esme Shelby³¹⁹

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

7/1

£16,000 5-y-o, Arctic Cosmos mare. Dam, lightly-raced maiden pointer, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/chaser Herons Heir. Runner-up on second start in Irish points last time (Dec 30).

Form: 82-

La Mystere²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: Sean Quinlan| T: S R B Crawford

4/1

Just minor promise in bumpers but has been found a thin race for hurdle debut, so this Irish raider requires a look in the betting.

Form: 06-65

Miss Mahmite²³

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: Ross Chapman| T: P A Kirby

18/1

Showed a bit more than on debut for Jamie Snowden when third in a Hereford bumper 23 days ago, though her finishing position probably flatters her. Upped in trip for hurdle debut.

Form: 6-3

Moore Clouds²⁵⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: R D Day| T: A Wilson

40/1

£56,000 4-y-o, Cloudings mare. Closely related to fairly useful hurdler Going Gold, and half-sister to modest hurdler Cardy. Irish point winner, held last time (Mar 1).

Form: 1/24-

Orient Sunset¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: Thomas Willmott⁽⁵⁾| T: I A Duncan

150/1

Looks limited on early evidence.

Form: 475-76

Orlas' Abbey²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: Sam Coltherd⁽³⁾| T: S Corbett

250/1

Last on her only start in bumpers in the winter and went with no promise tried hurdling at Carlisle last month.

Form: 0-P

Rubytwo^p1⁵⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 10-12| J: Danny McMenamin⁽³⁾| T: N G Richards| OR: 105| BF

6/5

Is proving expensive to follow, but she wasn't seen to best effect at Kelso last time, so is worth one more chance to get off the mark fitted with first-time cheekpieces.

Form: 7225-22

Shanbally Rose⁶⁸⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: C O'Farrell| T: R Dobbin

17/2

Court Cave mare. Dam (c111/h82) 2¾m chase winner (stayed 25f). Third sole start in Irish points (Dec 2018).

Form: 3/

Shantou Street^t³⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: William Shanahan⁽⁷⁾| T: S Waugh| OR: 105

13/2

Bettered her previous efforts over hurdles when second in a Sedgefield novice (19.8f) 37 days ago, albeit slightly flattered by proximity to winner at line. That was a weak race but so is this.

Form: 300-352

Forecasts

Rubytwo (6/5), La Mystere (4/1), Shantou Street (13/2), Esme Shelby (7/1), Shanbally Rose (17/2), Eeyore (14/1), Miss Mahmite (18/1), Little Actress (25/1), Moore Clouds (40/1), Convivial (80/1), Chroi Old Girl (100/1), Orient Sunset (150/1), Orlas' Abbey (250/1)

RUBYTWO is proving expensive to follow over hurdles, but she wasn't seen to best effect at Kelso last time, so is worth one final chance to open her account. Esme Shelby is a respected Rules newcomer having shown ability in points. Shantou Street is unlikely to be far away with a repeat of her latest Sedgefield effort and also merits consideration.
