Graham The Plumbers' Merchant Fillies' Juvenile Hurdle (GBB Race)

Off time: 14:31 | Winning time: 3m 54.80s

See The Eagle Fly^p⁴⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 11-1| J: G Sheehan| T: H Whittington

6/4

Modest maiden on the Flat in Ireland, but made the perfect start to hurdles career when scoring at Fontwell (17.7f, soft) last month. Merits serious consideration, despite carrying a penalty.

6/1

Fair performer on the Flat for Charlie Fellowes, winner of a heavy-ground 2m handicap at Catterick in October. In good hands for hurdles debut and she's a must for the shortlist.

Form:

Gilbertina⁶³

Age: 3| Weight: 10-10| J: Charlie Hammond⁽³⁾| T: N Kent

200/1

No show in 2 minor events on Flat and leap of faith required in order to lend her support now hurdling.

Form:

High Moor Flyer³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 10-10| J: Joe Colliver| T: Jedd O'Keeffe

50/1

Very limited promise on the Flat, and will need to improve significantly for the switch to hurdles if she's to have a say in the finish.

Form:

Age: 3| Weight: 10-10| J: Joshua Moore| T: G & J Moore

11/2

Fair maiden on the Flat and this half-sister to useful hurdler Nelson River shaped well without being unduly punished when third on Fakenham hurdles debut (2m, good to soft). Likely improver.

Form: 3

Kobra¹⁷⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 10-10| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton

7/2

Winner of a modest 9.5f maiden sole start on the Flat in Germany. Joined a respected yard ahead of this switch to hurdles and it will be interesting to see what the market has to say.

Form:

Lunar Bounty^h¹³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 10-10| J: Tom Cannon| T: A King

18/1

Well held sole start on the Flat at Yarmouth in July. However, she's out of a bumper/19f-2½m hurdle winner and may well be seen in a better light now switched to hurdles.

Form:

Megan⁴³

Age: 3| Weight: 10-10| J: J J Burke| T: S Edmunds

17/2

Useful on the Flat in Germany, winner of a conditions race during the summer. Half-sister to jumps winner abroad Mahe King and she's one to note in the betting on hurdles debut.

Form:

Age: 3| Weight: 10-10| J: Fergus Gregory⁽³⁾| T: J Coulson

150/1

Poor on the Flat and can only be watched on debut in this sphere.

Form:

Restricted Access¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 10-10| J: J McGrath| T: J G Portman

150/1

Modest maiden on the Flat and, untried beyond 1m on the level, her stamina for this game has to be taken on trust.

Form:

Forecasts

See The Eagle Fly (6/4), Flat White (3/1), Kobra (7/2), Isayalittleprayer (11/2), Atailof Two Cities (6/1), Megan (17/2), Volkovka (14/1), Lunar Bounty (18/1), High Moor Flyer (50/1), Restricted Access (150/1), Plusdargent (150/1), Gilbertina (200/1)

FLAT WHITE wasn't as good as some of these on the Flat, but she showed more than enough on her hurdles debut at Uttoxeter to suggets that a race of this nature will be within her grasp. Atailof Two Cities won't be found wanting stamina-wise having scored over 2m on the Flat, and she is next on this list ahead of fellow hurdles debutante Kobra. Fontwell winner See The Eagle Fly is also feared.
