Arvika Royal⁴⁹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Tabitha Worsley⁽³⁾| T: Charlotte Fuller

10/1

Arvico mare. Half-sister to dual point winner Winter Holiday. Dam point winner. Unplaced sole start in point bumper (Dec 2020) and she's passed over on Rules debut.

Form: 7-

Indelible Spin³²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: B Roberts⁽⁷⁾| T: C E Longsdon

5/2

Carlotamix mare. Half-sister to bumper winner/smart hurdler Indefatigable and bumper winner Litigate. Proved easy to back and offered little short-term promise in a C&D bumper in March. This should reveal more.

Form: 9

Macey Milan¹¹²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: W T Kennedy| T: S-J Davies

50/1

Milan mare who was never going well from circuit out when last of 8 in a mares' bumper at Uttoxeter (15.7f) (reportedly bled) back in December. Can only be watched on the back of that here.

Form: 8

Stowaway Jess

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Liam Harrison⁽³⁾| T: F O'Brien

10/11

Universal mare. Half-sister to bumper winner A Book of Intrigue. Dam, won twice in points, half-sister to bumper winner/useful hurdler (2m winner) Amaretto Rose. Yard do particularly well in this sphere and well worth a second look on debut.

Form:

11/1

£2,000 3-y-o, Telescope filly. Half-sister to fair hurdler Classic Tune. Yard 0-6 with their runners in this sphere in recent seasons and probably best watched on debut. Hooded.

Form:

Forever A Dove

Age: 4| Weight: 10-6| J: Max Kendrick| T: J Coulson

9/1

Westerner filly. Half-sister to fair hurdler Charlie Siringo. Dam (h72), bumper winner, sister to bumper winner/fairly useful hurdler (stayed 2¾m) Primroseandblue. Another requiring a precautionary market check for clues on debut.

Form:

Forecasts

Stowaway Jess (10/11), Ilary De L'Ecu (13/8), Indelible Spin (5/2), Lady Salvador (9/2), Forever A Dove (9/1), Arvika Royal (10/1), Dolomiti (11/1), Tell Ell (28/1), Macey Milan (50/1)

STOWAWAY JESS makes appeal on paper for a yard that does particularly well in this sphere and could be the way to go in a bumper that will unlikely take a whole lot of winning. Ilary de L'Ecu, who showed fair form in a couple of French events late last year, is the obvious threat, whilst Lady Salvador is another newcomer worth a precautionary check in the betting for clues.
