Mountain Queen²⁸

3/1

Promising type. Career best when winning 11-runner maiden at Wolverhampton (9.5f) in November and backed that effort up with close second of 5 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f) 28 days ago. Likely more to come yet.

Form: 4751-2

Angels Landing^t⁶⁴

7/1

Fifth of 7 in handicap hurdle (6/1) at Southwell (15.8f, good) 64 days ago. Poor on last Flat start. Tongue strap back on. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. Had wind operation.

4/1

Left rare poor previous effort behind when third of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (10.2f) when last seen in November. Won first time up last year so warrants plenty of respect.

Miss Harmony¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 8-4| J: Jay Mackay⁽⁷⁾| T: M L W Bell| OR: 60| C| D

17/2

Course winner who got didn't need to improve to bag 4-runner handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW, 11/1) 13 days ago. This is tougher. 1 lb out of the weights.

Form: 84-5341

Forecasts

Mountain Queen (3/1), Wynter Wildes (7/2), My Little Queens (4/1), Dal Mallart (6/1), Angels Landing (7/1), Miss Harmony (17/2), New Heights (12/1), Flower Of Thunder (28/1)

The return to this longer trip will suit MOUNTAIN QUEEN, who failed only narrowly to make a winning handicap bow at Southwell last month and remains low mileage. My Little Queens and Wynter Wildes are feared most.
