Nifty Getaway¹⁸⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: G Sheehan| T: A Watson

5/4

Fair bumper winner at Ayr but well-beaten ninth in listed bumper at Sandown when last seen out 6 months ago. Still much respected on her hurdles debut.

Wrap Your Wings²⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-0| J: James Best| T: J D Frost

33/1

Placed in Irish points but never-dangerous sixth of 11 in novice hurdle over C&D on her NH debut 27 days ago. Needs a big step forward.

Form: R36

Ya Know Yaseff¹⁸⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: T Scudamore| T: D Pipe

2/1

Jet Away mare. Half-sister to point winner Cloghouge Boy and fairly useful hurdler Treaty Girl, stayed 3¼m. Dam lightly raced in bumpers. Winning Irish pointer who appeals on paper so this newcomer is well worth considering.

Forecasts

Nifty Getaway (5/4), Ya Know Yaseff (2/1), Lady Jane P (4/1), Div Ine Tara (12/1), Maire's Dream (22/1), Wrap Your Wings (33/1), Kay's Light (66/1), Martha Burell (125/1)

YA KNOW YASEEF made a promising start when winning an Irish point and is fancied to go in over hurdles at the first time of asking too for her new yard. Lady Jane P is the clear pick of those with hurdling experience and feared greatly if at her best on debut for Adrian Wintle after an absence. Newcomer Nifty Getaway showed fair winning form in bumpers and is much respected too.
