Virgin Bet Fives Mares' Novices' Handicap Chase (GBB Race)

Off time: 15:50 | Winning time: 7m 0.90s

Eleanor Bob²⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: Charlie Deutsch| T: Miss V Williams| OR: 120

15/8

Firmly back on track over fences of late, successful at Chepstow and following up in good style over extended 23f at Huntingdon last month. 6 lb rise shouldn't prevent another bold bid.

Form: F-34611

Legends Ryde^p1,t¹²

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: G Sheehan| T: Jamie Snowden| OR: 120| BF

4/1

Fairly useful hurdler who showed improved form to make a winning chase debut at Ffos Las (23.8f) in October. Good second at Ascot next time but jumping has let her down twice subsequently.

Form: 3P-1254

Miss Jeanne Moon^p²⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 10-13| J: T Scudamore| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 107| C

2/1

Low-mileage mare who turned in best effort of campaign when 4 lengths second of 4 behind Eleanor Bob at Huntingdon (23.6f) last month. Gets a handy pull at the weights so not dismissed out of hand.

Form: P3-2452

The Toojumpa²⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 10-2| J: Liam Harrison⁽³⁾| T: F O'Brien| OR: 96

9/2

Heavily backed to make winning yard debut at Worcester (23f) in October. Record mixed subsequently, possibly amiss when pulled up at Uttoxeter (3m) in February. Bounce back likely.

Form: 1UU24P

Forecasts

Eleanor Bob (15/8), Miss Jeanne Moon (2/1), Legends Ryde (4/1), The Toojumpa (9/2)

ELEANOR BOB arrives on the up over fences, supplementing her Chepstow success in good style at Huntingdon last month. Up 6 lb, she's expected to make a bold bid to complete the hat-trick. Miss Jeanne Moon may emerge as the chief threat.
