Horse A-Z
Hooded, 125/1 winner of Wetherby novice on first run for yard on Boxing Day, making all and drawing clear from 5 out. No fluke to it, with the third successful since, and she looks a useful prospect.

Poor form only start in bumpers and similar form over hurdles, soon off the bridle at Doncaster last time.

Shaped like a stayer when fourth of 17 in a novice hurdle here (21f, soft) on debut in December, outpaced entering straight. Will improve and one to consider.

Showed some ability in a Hereford bumper on debut last month but a lot more required now hurdling.

Overbury mare. Sister to fairly useful hurdler The Delray Munky. Dam (c112/h107) 17f-4m hurdle/chase winner. Unplaced sole start in point bumper back in April 2019.

Gold Well mare. Half-sister to bumper winner Washington. Dam unraced half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/chaser Kalahari Queen. Makes appeal on paper and in a good yard, so requires a market check.

Just modest form in bumpers, probably flattered when fourth of 7 at Newcastle last time.

Fair bumper winner who finished runner-up for the second time over hurdles here (21, heavy) 34 days ago, clear of rest. Expected to remain competitive.

Promise when placed in a brace of bumpers but yet to translate that form over hurdles. Could be a handicap project.

Milan mare who has taken a while to make it to the track after finishing runner-up in a point in March 2019, but nevertheless she's in excellent hands so requires a market check.

4/1
Cost a whopping £400,000 after making a winning point debut in March 2019. It's taken a while to get her to the track but she's in top hands and a market move would look significant.

250/1
Stowaway mare. Dam unraced half-sister to smart hurdler (stayed 23f) Shinrock Paddy. Maiden Irish pointer, made frame last time (Nov 29). Wears hood (had wind op) and likely best watched.
|
Timeform
£150,000 buy from the Irish pointing field. Shaped promisingly only start in bumpers but little impact in 2 starts over hurdles. Should do better at some point, most likely in handicaps. Had wind op.

Went backwards in bumpers following a winning debut at Aintree last season and made an unpromising start in this sphere at Uttoxeter (15.8f) on return. Fell 4 out at Wincanton last time.

Forecasts

Ballycallan Fame (6/5), Hunny Moon (11/4), My Whirlwind (4/1), Fantastic Lady (7/1), White Hart Lady (28/1), Message To Martha (33/1), Uptown Lady (40/1), La Reine Poutine (40/1), Gold Leader (50/1), Ask The Lady (150/1), Ferny Knap (200/1), Lady Malarkey (200/1), Grenadine Save (250/1), Speedy Choice (250/1), Give Over (300/1)

Verdict

BALLYCALLAN FAME won as her rider pleased at Wetherby and despite her 125/1 SP there seemed to be no fluke about the performance, so she may well be up to defying a penalty. My Whirlwind is a most interesting Rules debutante having cost a whopping £400,000 after making a winning point debut back in March 2019 and a market move would need taking seriously. Hunny Moon is also respected.
