Panned At 3As Coffee Shop Mares' Handicap Chase

Winning Irish pointer. Failed to build on her hurdle debut second in 3 subsequent outings over the smaller obstacles but could prove a different proposition now switching to fences after a 4-month break. Tongue tied first time. All the more interesting if backed.

Low-key efforts upon returning this season but stopped the slide when second of 6 over C&D last month. Not in the same form at Huntingdon since and needs a return to this venue to suit.

Winning pointer who was runner-up over 3m at Ludlow in her second chase. Ran well when fourth in a novice at Warwick since and looks well treated back in a handicap.

Low-mileage 9-y-o who had cheekpieces fitted when posting a good second of 8 in handicap at Leicester (22.5f, soft) in January. The headgear didn't work as well at Plumpton since, though.

Poor and long-standing maiden. Ran well for second of 4 over 2m at Leicester last time but she was no match for the winner. Suspicion the wait for a first win will go on.
