Call Me Tara⁶⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: P J Brennan| T: F O'Brien

10/3

Just modest form in bumpers, looking the type to do better over obstacles, so she's one to note now switched to hurdling.

Form: 3/44-2

Girlofmydreams^t1¹¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: T Scudamore| T: N P Mulholland

7/2

Well related 5yo who made a winning start in bumpers before finding herself out of her depth at Aintree 110 days ago. Looks an interesting hurdling debutante.

Form: 10-

Imperial Senorita⁷²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: Charlie Hammond| T: M Young

125/1

Imperial Monarch mare. Half-sister to 4 winners, including fair hurdler/useful chaser Ronava and useful 3m chase winner Dubai Quest. Maiden Irish pointer, pulled up last time (May 15).

Form: F/PU4-0P

Joyful Kit^b1⁵⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: Harry Bannister| T: T Lawes| OR: 98| BF

5/2

Modest maiden hurdler who ran with credit wen fourth at Ffos Las 54 days ago but she's well exposed and will need blinkers to bring about some improvement.

Form: 5P32-23

Lunar Flight⁷⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: R P McLernon| T: P R Webber

125/1

Not beaten far on AW debut in January 2021 but no encouragement since. Hard to fancy on hurdling bow.

Form: 50/0

Night Fever^p1²³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Page Fuller| T: Jamie Snowden

16/1

Fairly useful at best on Flat (stays 1½m) in Germany but just modest form so far over hurdles. Drops back in distance with cheekpieces applied.

Form: 36

Paris Dixie^t1²³⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 11-2| J: Rex Dingle| T: A J Honeyball| OR: 103

5/1

Yet to add to her bumper success, and down the field in a handicap hurdle at Exeter on final outing for Nicky Henderson 7 months ago. New stable has applied a tongue strap and worth a market check.

Form: 577/049-

Phyllis⁵⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: Benjamin Poste| T: H Dickin

125/1

Has looked limited in various company, fell at Southwell last time.

Form: 4RF

Gleneaglet^h²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-12| J: James Best| T: D Faulkner

66/1

Well out of sorts on the level of late and has made an inauspicious start to her hurdling career.

Form: U6

Gold Wing^h¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 10-12| J: Mitchell Bastyan| T: M F Harris

9/2

Well-bred fair maiden on the Flat and offered something to work on when third in a novice at Newton Abbot on her first hurdling outing. Should do better, so boasts solid claims.

Form: 3

Forecasts

Joyful Kit (5/2), Call Me Tara (10/3), Girlofmydreams (7/2), Gold Wing (9/2), Paris Dixie (5/1), Night Fever (16/1), Agent Of Fortune (33/1), Gleneaglet (66/1), Imperial Senorita (125/1), Phyllis (125/1), Lunar Flight (125/1)

GIRLOFMYDREAMS has shown ability in bumpers and appeals as the sort to improve for a switch to hurdling, so she gets the tentative vote in a tricky mares' maiden. Call Me Tara fits a similar mould and should be respected, while Gold Wing is also on the shortlist.
