Pertemps Network Mares' Open Maiden NH Flat Race (GBB Race)

Off time: 16:10 | Winning time: 3m 56.86s

Bushtucker Park

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Aidan Coleman| T: O Murphy

6/1

€40,000 3-y-o, Walk In The Park mare. Dam (c97/h89), 2½m chase winner, sister to smart hurdler (stayed 25f) Not Many Left. One to take seriously on debut and worth a market check.

Form:

Courtney Silver²⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Brendan Powell| T: A Carson

33/1

Twice-raced maiden and failed to repeat first effort when sixth of 11 in bumper at Uttoxeter (15.8f, heavy) 27 days ago. More is needed.

Form: 66

Dontyawantme³²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: C Brace| T: F O'Brien

5/1

Getaway mare who dead-heated for first sole start in Irish points. Promising third of 16 in bumper at Newcastle (16.9f, soft) on NH debut 32 days ago so he needs considering.

Form: 1-3

Harthill³¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Thomas Bellamy| T: David Dennis

22/1

Twice-raced maiden and bettered debut effort when fourth of 10 in bumper at Chepstow (16f, soft, 66/1) 31 days ago. Needs another step forward now.

Form: 64

It's Maisy¹⁹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Thomas Willmott⁽³⁾| T: J Parkinson & S Smith

100/1

40/1, ninth of 10 in bumper at Southwell (15.8f, good). Off 6 months so needs to hit the ground running.

Form: 79

Little Miss Dante

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: S Bowen| T: O Murphy

7/4

£100,000 3-y-o, Kayf Tara mare. Sister to useful bumper winner/useful hurdler Go Dante, and half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/chaser Angel of Harlem. Newcomers from yard often fancied. Betting can guide.

Form:

Love At Sea⁷⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Mr J Reddington⁽⁷⁾| T: T Gallagher

7/1

Winning pointer who backed that up with a good second at Down Royal on her first go under Rules in June. No show in listed company back from a break at Cheltenham but this looks more realistic.

Form: 1-20

Miss Get The Veuve²⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: James Davies| T: N J Gifford

80/1

25/1, seventh of 11 in bumper at Uttoxeter (15.8f, heavy) on NH debut 27 days ago. Lots more required.

Form: 7

Rockette⁵⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Bridget Andrews| T: D Skelton

125/1

28/1, fourteenth of 15 in bumper at Ludlow (15.8f, good to soft) on NH debut 58 days ago. In good hands so she's worth another chance.

Form: 0

Strong Belle⁵⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Finn Lambert⁽⁵⁾| T: N & W Twiston-Davies

3/1

8/1, promising 2¼ lengths third of 8 to Lilting Verse in listed bumper at this C&D (good to soft) on NH debut 54 days ago. Sets a high standard with improvement on the cards too.

Form: 3

Non-Runners

Miss Chawner⁵⁴

Weight: 11-4| Age: 5

T: J Tizzard J: Non Runner

Forecasts

Little Miss Dante (7/4), Strong Belle (3/1), Dontyawantme (5/1), Bushtucker Park (6/1), Love At Sea (7/1), Miss Chawner (14/1), Harthill (22/1), Courtney Silver (33/1), Miss Get The Veuve (80/1), It's Maisy (100/1), Rockette (125/1)

Niget Twiston-Davies' Blue Bresil mare STRONG BELLE made a promising start when third in a listed bumper over C&D so looks the way to go. Newcastle-third Dontyawantme also has better days ahead of her and is feared most, although Love At Sea needs considering now she has her sights lowered and Olly Murphy's unraced pair Bushtucker Park and Little Miss Dante could enter calculations too if the betting speaks in their favour.
