Forest Jump³¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| J: Tom Cannon| T: C Gordon

85/40

Half-brother to a bumper winner and has shown ability when fourth in bumpers over C&D and at Huntingdon (2m) this term. Step back up in trip should suit and could easily play a prominent role.

Form: 44

Girlofmydreams

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: Adam Wedge| T: N P Mulholland

11/2

Half-sister to 3 winners, including useful hurdler Arch My Boy (2m winner) and fair hurdler Princess T. Yard gets the odd bumper winner and would enter the reckoning if the betting vibes are strong.

Form:

Lady Amy^h⁴⁸

2/1

Sir Percy gelding from successful family for owners, dam a 2m-21f hurdle/chase winner and sister to smart hurdler/high-class chaser Kalashnikov who won a bumper on debut. Interesting.

Form:

Mistral Lady

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: T J O'Brien| T: P Hobbs & J White

11/4

Shirocco half-sister to fair hurdler Peggies Venture. Good stable no stranger to bumper success and market confidence could prove significant.

Non-Runners

Forecasts

Kaleb (2/1), Ebonello (2/1), Forest Jump (85/40), Mistral Lady (11/4), Girlofmydreams (11/2), Lady Amy (50/1), Engaging Sam (125/1)

KALEB makes appeal on paper and gets a tentative vote to make a winning debut, with confidence increased should the betting vibes be strong. Ebonello would be a strong opponent if showing up after another placed effort on Sunday. Forest Jump should appreciate the return to this trip, while Mistral Lady and Girlofmydreams would also enter the reckoning should the betting speak in their favour.
