Record stands at 0-17 but there is a race in her and she wasn't disgraced when fifth at Ludlow in March. One to consider.

Bolted up at Plumpton in February and likely found the race coming too soon when only eighth at Huntingdon since. Big player if back on his game following more of a break.

Showed a bit in bumpers and hints of encouragement over hurdles so far, so improvement can't be ruled out now switched to handicaps.

Course winner (2m) in October and creditable efforts the last twice, so should be thereabouts if he gets home upped in trip.

Showed promise in bumpers and in her qualifying runs over hurdles last term. She's failed to progress this time round, though.

Dual point winner who went close to breaking his duck under Rules at Hereford last season. Out of sorts subsequently, though, and cheekpieces go back on now.

Former course winner who racked up a hat-trick in autumn 2019 but it's been a struggle since. Hard to fancy despite tumbling mark.

Useful in bumpers. Yet to get anywhere near that level over hurdles and well held both outings this term.

Poor handicap hurdler who is out of the weights and hard to make any sort of case for returning from 17 months off. Hood on 1st time.

Forecasts

Frankincense (7/2), Midnight Aurora (4/1), Woulduadamandeveit (4/1), Wilde Spirit (9/2), Singapore Saga (7/1), Master Tradesman (14/1), Tea Time Fred (16/1), Alberts Monarch (16/1), Itsaboutime (50/1)

Verdict

A weak race that could go the way of WILDE SPIRIT, a class-dropper who is one of very few that arrive in form. Midnight Aurora is an obvious danger if back to the form she showed when scoring at Plumpton on in February.

  1. WILDE SPIRIT (IRE)
  2. MIDNIGHT AURORA
  3. FRANKINCENSE (IRE)
