Age: 4| Weight: 11-2| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton

11/8

Fair performer on the Flat in Germany, winner of a 6.5f maiden when last seen in September 2022. Joined a top yard ahead of this hurdles debut and while her stamina has to be taken on trust, she's very much one to note in the betting.

Age: 4| Weight: 11-2| J: Paul O'Brien| T: Mrs P Sly

25/1

Showed only minor promise in a brace of bumpers and hurdles debut display at Stratford wasn't overly encouraging.

Form: 67-5

Miss Arabella²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Ryan Mania| T: A M Thomson

13/2

Related to winners and clear signs of ability in bumpers. However, she was never in the hunt on first run over hurdles at Musselburgh and will probably be seen in a better light in handicaps further down the line.

Form: 4P-26

Telepathique¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Tom Cannon| T: L Wadham| D

1/1

Confirmed debut promise when landing a 12-runner Warwick bumper in February. Runner-up on hurdles debut in a stronger race than this at Newbury (16.3f, good to soft) 19 days ago and, with improvement on the cards, she can be expected to make a bold bid to go one better here.

Form: 410-2

Two Summers¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 11-2| J: R T Dunne| T: A Keatley

100/1

Winner of one of her 17 starts on the Flat, namely a 6f Catterick handicap last October. Recent efforts have lacked spark and stamina is a serious concern now switched to hurdles.

Forecasts

Telepathique (1/1), Alljani (11/8), Fortune Forever (11/4), Miss Arabella (13/2), Lady Caro (7/1), Madame Pompadour (7/1), Sanda Rena (10/1), Riccirella (16/1), Ever Ready (25/1), Ann D'arabie (25/1), Gladys Eva Jane (50/1), Tara Vango (50/1), Two Summers (100/1), Woogrey (100/1)

This represents a good opportunity for TELEPATHIQUE, who made a positive start in this sphere when chasing home a fairly useful and experienced type at Newbury. Fortune Forever was also runner-up on her hurdles debut and is feared most back on better ground after presumably finding conditions too testing last time. Lady Caro is third on the list, while it will be interesting to see which way Alljani, a winner on the Flat in Germany, goes in the betting.
