Left previous efforts behind to land a Fairyhouse maiden in October. Has failed to reproduce that form all 3 outings since but should benefit from a return to calmer waters.

Steadily progressive last season and stepped up on reappearance run when third of 7 to a big improver at Doncaster (19.4f, soft) 28 days ago. Can make presence felt if coming on again for the outing.

9/1
Justified support to get off the mark at Bangor in August and has run creditably on her last 2 handicap starts, including when second at Fakenham (2m) on most recent outing in November. Should remain competitive.

Fair Flat winner who showed more than on hurdling debut when fourth of 13 in a Catterick maiden (15.7f) 27 days ago. Makes a quick switch to handicaps now and may do better still.

Having dropped below her last winning mark, proved at least as good as ever when successful in 13-runner mares' handicap at Taunton (had won the same event in 2023) 30 days ago, closed down late having not been fluent last 2. Respected up 6 lb.

Fair bumper winner who attracted support and was in the process of showing better form when falling here in November. Not in same form at Kelso and Ayr since, however.

Well held all 3 starts to date but yard can often improve horses from low bases, so needs a precautionary check in the betting on handicap debut.

Forecasts

Midnight Shuffle (6/4), Celestial Fashion (5/1), Parvos (13/2), You Some Girl (13/2), Sawpit Sienna (8/1), On Cloud Nine (9/1), Purple Gown (14/1), Leahs Tricks (20/1), Telefenney (50/1)

Verdict

MIDNIGHT SHUFFLE was steadily progressive last season and perhaps still needed the run when third to a big improver at Doncaster 4 weeks ago, so she's given the tentative vote. Taunton scorer Sawpit Sienna is respected up 6 lb, while Purple Gown's Flat form provides hope for better still now handicapping and she also needs considering.

  1. Midnight Shuffle6/4
  2. Sawpit Sienna8/1
  3. Purple Gown14/1
