11/4
Likeable mare who enhanced her impressive strikes rate in handicaps when making all in a C&D event from Ratoute Yutty last month. Every reason to think she will go well again.

50/1
Hinted at ability in a course bumper in February and, while she is yet to make an impact over hurdles, there's potentially for improvement now up in trip for handicap debut with cheekpieces fitted.

8/1
Successful at Exeter last winter. Not at best this term but has slipped to 13lb below her last winning mark so dangerous if staging a revival.

85/40
Unexposed mare who upped her game when a narrow third at Ludlow on handicap debut. Seems to be on a good mark and shapes like this sort of trip will suit.

Responded well to a visor when off the mark at Hereford in November but disappointing on both subsequent outings. Others preferred.

4/1
C&D winner who has run respectably the last twice and has dropped a couple of pounds since last run. One to consider with promising 7-lb claimer on board.

More impact from much-reduced mark when second to MIdnight Mary over C&D last time, but he's generally one to oppose.

Forecasts

River Tyne (85/40), Midnight Mary (11/4), Avithos (4/1), Lily Glitters (6/1), Ruby Yeats (8/1), Ratoute Yutty (12/1), The Sumba Island (50/1)

Verdict

RIVER TYNE posted an improved effort in third despite arguably racing on the slowest part of the track at Leicester recently so, with further progress on the cards, he is preferred to last-time-out C&D winner Midnight Mary. Avithos is another one to consider with Peter Kavanagh taking 7 lb off.
