Miss Mocktail⁵⁴⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-13| J: Chris Ward⁽³⁾| T: Steph Hollinshead

Rainbow Jet¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 10-13| J: Peter Kavanagh⁽⁵⁾| T: J Mackie

80/1

Fairly useful at best on Flat but unfancied and got no further than first on hurdles bow at Southwell last month.

Form: U

200/1

Well held in 2 minor events on Flat and offered little on Ludlow hurdles debut last month.

Forecasts

Clonakilty (5/6), Doyen For Money (5/2), Sageburg County (9/1), Ballydisco (14/1), Hokelami (18/1), Embolden (25/1), Kash Tara (25/1), Wind Of Fortune (33/1), Mr Biggs (40/1), Tellairsue (66/1), Rainbow Jet (80/1), White Rhino (100/1), Miss Mocktail (125/1), Nakedfarrier (200/1)

CLONAKILTY acquitted himself well on his NH bow at Chepstow last month and can open his account here. Hurdling-debutants Sageburg County and Doyen For Money may provide the chief threat.
