Useful Flat performer, winning all 3 starts in 2021 for John Mackie. Best effort over hurdles when second in 2m Huntingdon novice last month. Lost action when pulled up on handicap debut since. Tongue tie added now. Might be worth another chance.

Sister to 4 winners who finished runner-up on final outing between the flags in May. Tongue tied and little to get excited about over hurdles so far, though step up in distance will suit.

Fairly useful bumper winner on debut in April. Disappointing over hurdles so far but in top hands and she could easily be a different proposition this time.

Showed ability in bumpers and has done likewise over hurdles, albeit ended the season in pretty disappointing fashion. Well weighted if a wind op has had the desired effect.

Forecasts

Dancingontheedge (7/2), Drash On Ruby (5/1), Last Of A Legend (6/1), Mistral Lady (6/1), Lady Wilberry (13/2), Leading Theatre (9/1), Ooh Betty (10/1), Imperial Pride (14/1), Colony Queen (25/1), Gata Ban (28/1), Sallyann (28/1), My Girl Lollipop (33/1), Caitlin's Court (33/1), Methodtothemagic (50/1)

Verdict

This could be a strong race for the grade with several open to progress. Point-winner OOH BETTY displayed ability in all 3 of her qualifying runs and is just preferred in favour of Dancingontheedge (well handicapped on bumper form) and Drash On Ruby (sort to benefit from a breathing operation).

  3. Drash On Ruby5/1
