Drash On Ruby⁴⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Lorcan Williams⁽³⁾| T: J Scott

5/2

Passing Glance filly. Sister to useful hurdler/chaser Dashel Drasher, and half-sister to 2 winners, including fair hurdler Popping Along. Kept on to grab fifth starting out at Warwick.

Form: 5

Familiar Spirit⁴⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Mr Caoilin Quinn⁽¹⁰⁾| T: W Greatrex

33/1

Fame And Glory half-sister to 3 winners, including bumper winner/fairly useful hurdler Alverstone. Never really involved on last month's debut at Plumpton.

Form: 5

Groovy Kind^t1⁵²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Megan Nicholls| T: P F Nicholls

9/1

£44,000 3-y-o, Masked Marvel filly. Dam 19f chase winner. Too green to show much on last month's debut at Ludlow but she's in top hands and now has a tongue tie fitted.

Form: 0

Gwennoline^h¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Kieren Buckley⁽⁷⁾| T: N J Hawke

66/1

Balko mare. Dam hurdles winner. Hooded and minor promise only in an AW bumper 15 days ago.

Form: 7

Jet Fantastique^h³⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Aidan Coleman| T: S Thomas

28/1

Could manage only ninth of 11 on debut at Hereford last month, but better was clearly expected (sent off at 10/3) so interesting to see if she attracts support again.

Form: 9

Lily Glitters⁵²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: T J O'Brien| T: H D Daly

14/1

Signs of ability in bumpers at Taunton and Ludlow, but improvement will be needed if she's to play a leading role.

Form: 46

Miss Marette⁵⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: James Davies| T: C J Down

125/1

Passing Glance filly. Half-sister to bumper winner Prince Llywelyn. Beat just one home on debut at Exeter.

Form: 9/0-

Sanguinaire

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Lorcan Murtagh⁽³⁾| T: H Fry

10/1

Sans Frontieres mare. Half-sister to 3 winners, including unreliable but fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser Wild West Wind. Of obvious interest on debut.

Form:

Universal Brook

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: James Bowen| T: Miss R Curtis

40/1

Universal mare. Dam (h68) lightly raced in bumpers/over hurdles. Highly respected on debut.

Form:

Mayhem Mya⁶⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 10-10| J: Bryan Carver⁽³⁾| T: C Honour

9/4

Dam from a good jumps family but she made perfect start to her career in a "junior" bumper at Warwick in November. That race hasn't really worked out but she still demands respect.

Form: 1

Legendary Grace¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 10-3| J: Tabitha Worsley⁽⁵⁾| T: N J Gifford

9/2

Multiplex filly. Dam fairly useful 2m hurdle/chase winner. Similar form when runner-up in a brace of bumpers this winter, latterly on the AW. Receives weight all round.

Form: 22

Non-Runners

Chantilly Haze³⁷

Weight: 11-0| Age: 6

T: P C Dando J: Non Runner

Forecasts

Mayhem Mya (9/4), Drash On Ruby (5/2), Legendary Grace (9/2), Groovy Kind (9/1), Sanguinaire (10/1), Lily Glitters (14/1), Blue Bikini (16/1), Jet Fantastique (28/1), Familiar Spirit (33/1), Universal Brook (40/1), Chantilly Haze (50/1), Gwennoline (66/1), Miss Marette (125/1), Mizz Moondance (250/1)

LEGENDARY GRACE cemented a positive start to her career when runner-up for the second time at Lingfield a fortnight ago and in receipt of a healthy age allowance she is the one to beat. Mayhem Mya made a winning start at Warwick and is feared, while Sanguinaire and Universal Brook are likely-looking debutantes.
