Kissesforkatie²⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: Lorcan Williams| T: J Scott| OR: 124

9/2

Stepped up on her reappearance when picking up the pieces to finish fourth in a race where the leader went too hard in front at Sandown 4 weeks ago. Dropped another 1 lb so claims from workable mark.

Form: 1F/93-64

Runasimi River²¹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-8| J: Thomas Doggrell⁽⁷⁾| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 120| D

15/2

Likeable mare who got back to winning ways in gutsy style at Hereford. Ran as well as she ever has when a close third at Cheltenham 3 weeks ago so leading claims down in grade.

Form: 413-513

Getaweapon^t1⁶⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-2| J: David Bass| T: K Bailey & M Nicholls| OR: 114WS

5/1

Made winning debut over hurdles at Hereford in late-2020 and satisfactory return to action when third at Bangor 7 weeks ago. Tongue tie applied and has had a breathing operation since last seen.

Form: 1/212P-3

Nikap³⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-1| J: Conor Ring⁽³⁾| T: Evan Williams| OR: 113| BF

11/1

Made it 2-2 for new yard in a match over fences at Fontwell in November. Unable to complete the hat-trick back over timber last time but every chance of getting back on track here.

Form: 433114

Heva Rose²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Hugh Nugent⁽⁵⁾| T: Miss V Williams| OR: 112

8/1

Successful only outing on Flat and fairly useful form over jumps in France. Shaped as if better for the run on British/yard debut so respected on handicap bow for yard going great guns.

Form: 253F5-3

Drash On Ruby⁵²

Age: 6| Weight: 10-3| J: Rex Dingle| T: J Scott| OR: 101

5/4

Not disgraced in bumpers and has offered something to work on both start starts over hurdles, fourth over this C&D 52 days ago. May yet do better, so needs considering on handicap debut.

Form: 543-24

Daytime Ahead¹⁸

Age: 11| Weight: 10-0| J: Jack Martin⁽⁷⁾| T: C J Down| OR: 91| CD

18/1

Landed a pair of handicap hurdles here in 2019-20 (including over C&D). Never fired in 3 runs last term and similar story on first start for new yard last month.

Form: 15/7P3-0

Forecasts

Drash On Ruby (5/4), Kissesforkatie (9/2), Getaweapon (5/1), Runasimi River (15/2), Heva Rose (8/1), Nikap (11/1), Daytime Ahead (18/1)

Jeremy Scott looks to have a couple of strong fancies in this and his lightly-raced DRASH ON RUBY gets the verdict to make a winning handicap debut. She's shaped with promise in a couple of starts over timber and an opening mark of 101 could prove to be lenient. Stablemate Kissesforkatie heads the dangers having stepped up on her reappearance at Sandown 4 weeks ago, ahead of Runasimi River.
