10/1
Point/hurdles winner who finished runner-up on first 3 starts over fences last season. Unseated on final outing at Warwick back in March but she doesn't find much for pressure so others appeal more.

11/4
Won 3 times in novice company last season and shaped well when fourth of 9 on her Chepstow reappearance. Not in the same form in a first-time hood next time and now makes her chase debut.

11/8
Fairly useful hurdler who scored at Hereford and Newbury. Ran to a similar level on chase debut/return and improved when runner-up at Bangor (17.4f, soft) just over 5 weeks ago. The one to beat.

11/4
Point/bumper winner who made it 2-2 over hurdles when landing a mares' novice here last December. Back to winning ways on handicap bow at Punchestown and she's shortlisted for her chase debut/return.

28/1
Three-time winner last winter who wasn't disgraced when sixth of 9 on her handicap bow at Cheltenham in April. Well held on return at Fakenham so probably best to look elsewhere on this occasion.

Forecasts

Maskada (11/8), Pure Bliss (11/4), Galice Macalo (11/4), Deja Vue (10/1), Talking About You (28/1)

Verdict

MASKADA produced a more polished round of jumping than on her reappearance/chasing debut to finish runner-up in a listed event at Bangor last month, unable to live with an improver that has scored again since. This looks a good opportunity for her to open her account over fences. Pure Bliss and Galice Macalo are both exciting chasing prospects and are feared most in that order.

  1. MASKADA (FR)
  2. PURE BLISS
  3. GALICE MACALO (FR)
