Chabadatika³³³

Age: 4| Weight: 12-0| J: M G Nolan| T: S Hosie| OR: 114

66/1

25/1, won 16-runner juvenile hurdle at Cagnes-Sur-Mer (16.9f, soft). Off 11 months. Up in trip. First run for yard after leaving M. Seror. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Difficult ask.

Jersey Lady¹⁴⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-11| J: Miss Victoria Malzard⁽⁵⁾| T: Harry Derham| OR: 110| D

5/2

Consistent sort who landed a hat-trick under this jockey earlier in the year, last seen scoring with something to spare at Fontwell. Merits plenty of respect for new trainer.

Form: 5031-11

Ma Belle Noire^b,t⁴²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: J J Burke| T: H Fry| OR: 108

10/3

In top form lately and made it 3 from her last 4 at Worcester last time. May be capable of better still in current mood, so looks the one to beat.

Form: 3-21311

Chloe's Court^p,t²⁰⁹

Age: 10| Weight: 11-4| J: Harry Kimber⁽³⁾| T: R Walford| OR: 103| CD

14/1

Fair hurdler who was right back on track to score at Chepstow 6 months ago but the chances are that she'll need this return.

Form: 273P81-

Cast's Tasha^t²⁰⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-11| J: Ben Jones| T: Ben Clarke| OR: 96WS

9/2

Reliable type who opened her account in this sphere at Chepstow 6 months ago. Should be on the premises again if she's tuned up.

Form: 336621-

Little Else^t²⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 10-9| J: Lorcan Williams| T: J Scott| OR: 94| D

10/3

Bumper winner at Chepstow in December 2020. Lightly raced over hurdles but on the up now, scoring at Newton Abbot on reappearance. Solid claims in the hat-trick bid.

Form: 60751-1

Caitlin's Court³⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-9| J: Bryony Frost| T: J D Frost| OR: 94

7/1

Improved effort over hurdles when returning from 5 months off to win over 18.5f at Newton Abbot in May and resumed progress when second there last time. Others look better treated but she should give a good account.

Form: 67P-192

Forecasts

Jersey Lady (5/2), Little Else (10/3), Ma Belle Noire (10/3), Cast's Tasha (9/2), Caitlin's Court (7/1), Lady Wilberry (10/1), Chloe's Court (14/1), Chabadatika (66/1)

This looks an above-average contest with a number of last-time-out winners in the field, but the pick of them is probably MA BELLE NOIRE, who produced another career best at Worcester last time. Jersey Lady and Little Else both arrive on a winning streak, so they're feared.
