9/4
Made some appeal on paper and ran well amidst greenness when second in an Exeter bumper in November. With hood applied, showed a fine turn of foot when going one better in mares event at Ascot 3 months later, so she's respected with more still to offer.

Was sent off favourite and justified her market position when landing 13-runner mares bumper at Wetherby on debut back in March last year, edging ahead late on. Absent since but she's not discounted with tongue strap now added.

€38,000 3-y-o, Malinas mare. Half-sister to useful 2m hurdle winner Asian Master. Every chance when fell 2 out sole start in Irish points (Nov 2023) and has joined a top yard, so she's one to note.

Made an encouraging start to her career when third of 12 in bumper at Taunton 23 days ago, travelling fluently and keeping on without being knocked about. Could take a step forward with that first experience behind her.

Bred to need more of a test of stamina and never involved when 12¼ lengths ninth of 10 to the reopposing Anno Power in mares bumper at Ascot in February. Looks one for the longer term.

Dartmouth mare. Half-sister to fair hurdler Zwicky. Dam ran twice in bumpers out of fair 2½m hurdle winner Marsh Run. Faces a difficult ask on her first start.

Placed on both outings in Irish points and made a very promising start under Rules when beaten a neck by a previous winner in mares bumper at Newbury in March, making rapid headway to challenge. Leading contender.

Has stamina in her pedigree and fared best of the newcomers when 4 lengths third of 10 to Anno Power in mares bumper at Ascot 61 days ago, well positioned but sticking to her task. Can give another account.

Shaped like a stayer first time up when fourth of 8 in bumper at Ayr 40 days ago, staying on having been outpaced from early in the straight. Has plenty to find in first-time tongue strap.

Bred for longer trips and shaped in kind when sixth of 13 in mares bumper at Huntingdon a month ago, plugging on. Likely to need more time.

In hood for her first outing, went with little promise when well-beaten ninth of 12 in bumper at Huntingdon 70 days ago. Looks to be up against it.

€38,000 3-y-o, Night Wish filly. Dam, French 17f-2¼m hurdle/chase winner, half-sister to fair hurdler/chaser (stayed 23f) Rasango. This is a tough starting point.

Bred to stay well but she showed encouraging speed when runner-up in mares bumper at Wincanton on debut. Ran to a similar level when making the frame in listed event at Sandown next time, so she enters calculations.

Showed some promise making her debut when sixth of 20 in Goffs UK Spring Sales Bumper at Newbury last month, keeping on approaching final 1f. Could go well again.

Shaped well when second to I Am Max (won again next time) in Carlisle bumper on debut and matched that form when 9¼ lengths sixth of 11 to Honky Tonk Highway in listed race at Sandown last month. Capable of being in the mix.

Forecasts

Anno Power (9/4), Asian Star (5/2), Geturguccion (4/1), I've Madeupmymind (9/2), Khutulun Khan (14/1), Miss Goldfire (18/1), Lagertha (22/1), Plantaroma (33/1), Precious Jean (33/1), Ample Warning (50/1), Blacksamssenorita (80/1), Zarhanya (100/1), Briery Butterfly (100/1), Madame Bluebelle (100/1), Devon Skies (125/1), Misaura (125/1), Miss Appleberry (150/1), Moorsbrook (250/1)

Verdict

GETURGUCCION shaped with plenty of promise when only narrowly denied in a Newbury bumper last month, impressing with how she travelled into contention, and she can build on that effort to go one better. Anno Power scored with plenty in hand on her latest outing and is feared most, with I've Madeupmymind and Khutulun Khan also considered.
