Hasn't finished out of the first 2 in 6 outings in similar events this season, winning over 2m at Worcester in June and Southwell 15 days ago. Did it easily at latter and can defy the double penalty.
|
Fair bumper winner who has got better with each start over hurdles, getting off the mark in decisive fashion at Worcester (2½m) 10 days ago. Shorter trip asks a different question but still looks sure to go well.
|
Showed some promise when third in a Southwell bumper for Peter Niven in spring 2022 but hasn't been seen since. Has had wind surgery ahead of this switch to hurdles for leading new yard. Harry Skelton on Presenting Nelly but still interesting to see what the betting makes of her.
|
Modest form at best in 4 bumpers in 2022 so hardly strikes as a likely one to make a winning start over hurdles.
|
11/1, fifth of 6 in bumper at Southwell (2m, good to firm) on debut 88 days ago. Watching brief is advised switched to hurdles unless the betting strongly hints otherwise.

Forecasts
Manimole (8/13), Presenting Nelly (7/4), Theweddingcanwait (6/1), Chantilly Rose (10/1), Nathan Walker (66/1), Upbeat Betty (66/1)
It's likely this will develop into a straight fight between previous hurdle winners MANIMOLE and Presenting Nelly, with the fact the former has gained her victories around this trip earning her the vote.
