Winner of her only start over hurdles for Emmanuel Clayeux and shaped with promise first 2 outings for new yard before falling heavily in the Fred Winter. Perhaps not over that given she was well held, albeit in Grade 2 company latest. Back in a handicap and certainly in the right hands. Hood on.
|
A fair winner over hurdles in France and has shown a similar level of form over fences. Left D. Bressou for €30,000 and little to draw from British debut in the Fred Winter here a month ago.
|
Fair staying handicapper on Flat and going the right way over hurdles, winning juveniles at Hereford (maiden from Emotivo) and Sandown (handicap) since fitted with a hood. Raised 7 lb and ran right up to that form when fourth at Ascot 3 weeks ago.
|
Took very well to hurdling in the first half of last season, winning 4 times. Brace of runner-up efforts in listed company since and fit from a recent spin on the AW. New mark looks about right.
|
Capitalised on handy opening mark at Plumpton (15.9f) in February and cranked it up another notch when a decisive scorer at Uttoxeter, travelling powerfully. 8 lb rise fully justified and she represents a yard in red-hot form.
|
Fair maiden on the Flat who left previous hurdles form behind when second of 14 at Hereford in February, pulling clear with a next-time-out winner in Spiced Rum. Represents excellent yard and opening mark looks very fair.
|
Flat win came over 7f but she stays 14f on the level and made a promising hurdles debut when second at Cork in December. Unable to replicate that form twice since but she could easily revive switched to a handicap on British debut.
|
Bumper winner who looked in need of the experience when runner-up in junior event at Ludlow on her hurdles bow in December. Hasn't progressed as may have been expected since but opening mark is a modest one as a result. Capable of better.
|
Fair maiden on the Flat and left hurdling debut behind when scoring with plenty in hand at Doncaster in December. Not disgraced in listed company there the following month and runner-up on handicap debut at Wincanton latest. 2 lb out of the weights.
|
Won 2 juvenile hurdles for Adam West last summer. Well beaten in stronger company in the autumn but having made the switch to Dan Skelton, she made an underwhelming handicap debut at Ascot (also underwent breathing surgery). Should have more to offer.
|
Half-sister to useful hurdler Zanjabeel and has taken well to hurdling, runner-up twice before going one better at Ludlow (2m) in October. Failed to land the odds at Fakenham next time and didn't show much back on the AW when last seen in January.

Forecasts
Max Of Stars (4/1), Spiced Rum (9/2), Karia Des Blaises (5/1), Dameofthecotswolds (15/2), Majestic Jameela (17/2), Ezmerellda (17/2), Emotivo (11/1), Grain Of Hope (11/1), Evening's Empire (12/1), Vitani (22/1), Les Loyautes (50/1)
The Stuart Edmunds team is in tremendous order and MAJESTIC JAMEELA may continue their fine run on the back of a commanding win at Uttoxeter, with this drop in trip not expected to be a problem. The trio of Irish raiders are feared most, notably Emotivo on handicap debut.
- Majestic Jameela17/2
- Emotivo11/1
