22/1
Encouraging fourth of 10 in bumper (25/1) at Newcastle on NH debut 18 days ago, having run of race. Much respected on her hurdles debut.

Twice-raced maiden, only eighth of 13 in bumper at Catterick (22/1) 53 days ago. Makes hurdles debut with more needed.

100/1
Offered little on her hurdling bow when twelfth of 13 in novice (80/1) over C&D 21 days ago. Big step forward is required.

Flemensfirth half-sister to bumper winner Just Paddy's Band. Dam fairly useful 2¾m-25f hurdle winner. Plenty to like on paper, so newcomer is worth a second look.

8/11
Dual bumper winner but off 10 months since excellent third in Grade 2 company at Aintree. Returns for her hurdle debut and merits serious consideration.

Timeform
13/2 and hooded when encouraging second of 10 in 2m novice at Bangor on her hurdles bow 23 days ago. Well in the mix.

66/1
Off 18 months but hinted at promise when sixth in bumper at Kelso 16 months ago. Hood on for comeback/hurdles debut, and she's no forlorn hope.

Forecasts

Miss Lamb (8/11), Minelladestination (3/1), Prime Time Lady (4/1), Amber Gold (22/1), Darsi's Darling (22/1), Sumelia (66/1), Lively Livvy (100/1)

Verdict

The market should prove revealing here, but MISS LAMB showed useful form in bumpers and is taken to make light of her absence and go in at the first time of asking over hurdles. Prime Time Lady shaped with encouragement when runner-up at Bangor on her hurdling bow and is greatly feared, while Donald McCain's newcomer Minelladestination warrants lots of respect too.
