3/1
Yet to match French hurdles form but took a step in the right direction on her second start over fences at Taunton in January. Not so good last time but would have a chance if bouncing back.

3/1
Winning pointer unlucky not to have got her head in front in a handicap chase so far, second 4 times this season. Another good effort at Plumpton 4 days ago and she is a player again here.

Placed on both starts over hurdles this campaign but hasn't matched that form over fences yet, most recently well held at Hereford (25f) 83 days ago. Back down in trip with first-time cheekpieces on.

13/8
First win for the yard (from 14 lb out of the handicap) at Warwick 7 days ago. That was a weak race but, under a penalty, she remains significantly lower than her peak mark and may be back on the up.

20/1
Hurdles winner here last spring but hasn't taken to chasing on current evidence, jumping tentatively and making mistakes across her 2 starts in this sphere. Easy to oppose from out of the handicap.

Forecasts

Glorious Lady (13/8), Lilith (3/1), Fortunes Melody (3/1), Roseisaroseisarose (5/1), Candy Lou (20/1)

Verdict

GLORIOUS LADY remains well handicapped on her peak form and can follow up last week's Warwick win back in trip here. Lilith's consistency is hard to knock and she should also go well dropping in distance, whilst Fortunes Melody would merit consideration if matching the form of her Taunton second.
