Cherie D'am¹²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton

1/1

Great Pretender mare. Half-sister to fair hurdler Lalochezia. Dam (b95), bumper winner, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser (stayed 3m) Victor Hewgo. Makes plenty of appeal on paper.

Form: 1

Miss Maverick¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: S Bowen| T: G Hanmer

17/2

Doesn't make much appeal on pedigree and failed to beat a rival over C&D 2 weeks ago.

Form: 7

Northern Reel¹⁰⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Harry Reed| T: M F Harris

3/1

£38,000 buy after winning an Irish point in December. Stable has a good bumper record. Much respected, particularly if betting vibes strong.

Form: FU1

Shirley Knott

Age: 4| Weight: 10-6| J: Stan Sheppard| T: T Lacey

10/3

Proconsul filly. Dam 5f winner. Bred to have plenty of speed and stable can ready a newcomer.

Forecasts

Cherie D'am (1/1), Northern Reel (3/1), Shirley Knott (10/3), Mistral Milly (10/3), Braunton Burrows (11/2), Miss Maverick (17/2), Wyenot (16/1)

NORTHERN REEL won an Irish point and her stable is well capable of readying one, so she takes marginal preference over Mistral Milly, who shaped well at Ascot on debut. Cherie d'Am also makes plenty of appeal on paper.
