Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Kielan Woods| T: A M Hales| OR: 100

5/2

French recruit who won handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (20.6f) this time last year. Yet to fire this term, including over fences, but now lurks on a very tempting mark.

Committee Of One^p,t⁸^{(ex 7)}

Age: 9| Weight: 10-10| J: David Noonan| T: T R Gretton| OR: 75

9/2

Bounced back to form to record a first success over fences at Ffos Las (19.4f, heavy) a week ago, her stamina shining through. Key player under a penalty.

Form: 5-34251

Fashion's Model^p⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 10-7| J: Ben Jones| T: Sheila Lewis| OR: 79| BF

10/3

Winning pointer who was runner-up over 3m at Ludlow in her second chase and good chance on the form of her Warwick novice fourth next time. Ran too bad to be true in Ffos Las race won by Committee of One but turned out quickly and probably worth another chance.

Form: 57/P24P

Firefly Lane^t¹³

Age: 8| Weight: 10-5| J: Angus Cheleda⁽⁵⁾| T: J D Frost| OR: 77

9/4

Winning pointer who was again out of the weights but produced her best effort to date when second in similar event at Taunton under this rider a fortnight ago. Will need a bit more to go one better.

Form: P0-6P42

C'est Bleu^t¹³⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 10-5| J: Brendan Powell| T: J Tizzard| OR: 77

11/1

Second in a point bumper but not fluent and little promise in mares hurdles (tongue tied latest start). Makes chase debut.

Form: 20-P9

FASHION'S MODEL ran too badly to be true in the mud at Ffos Las recently, a race won by the re-opposing Committee of One, and she's worth another chance off a tempting mark. Grasse d'Oliverie is very well handicapped and came good last spring.
