13/8

Fair winning hurdler last season and has taken it up another notch over fences this term, gaining a second win of winter when seeing off 3 rivals in a mares' handicap at Warwick (3m) last month. Returns to hurdles off the same mark.

Form: 4-21221

Martha Brae³¹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-11| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton| OR: 117

16/5

Arrives on the back of 3 successive runner-up efforts. Nudged up another 2 lb but it's unlikely to prevent another prominent showing.

Form: 65-4222

Aimee De Sivola^p1⁵¹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-8| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: Mrs J Williams| OR: 114

9/2

Not at best at Exeter last time but prior to that she'd been a creditable second over C&D and claims if a return to this venue sees her recapture some form.

Form: 23-4F29

Santa Clarita^t⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: Benjamin Poste| T: T Symonds| OR: 104

16/1

Fair form over hurdles/fences in France. Better effort for new connections when third of 7 over 20.5f at Huntingdon last week. Steps up in trip turned out again quickly.

Form: 1-45P73

Fine By Her³¹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-2| J: Finn Lambert⁽⁵⁾| T: J S Smith| OR: 92

10/3

Opened account at Fakenham (3m, good) last May and arrives on the back of 2 creditable placed efforts in recent months. 2 lb out of handicap.

Form: 5-51823

MARTHA BRAE has been knocking on the door lately and can deservedly get her head back in front. Credo will be a major threat if she can translate this sesaon's good chase form back to the smaller obstacles.
