11/4

Some encouragement when mid-field in a pair of bumpers and made the frame on her last 2 starts in this sphere in January. Switches to handicapping now and must enter calculations.

Form: 66-634

Lady Caro⁷³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-11| J: Ben Jones| T: Miss E C Lavelle| OR: 90

13/8

Fair form in bumpers and has hinted at ability in a trio of starts over hurdles this winter. Improvement on the cards now sent handicapping.

Form: 046-657

Konigin Isabella^t⁵¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-11| J: Ben Godfrey⁽³⁾| T: A J Honeyball| OR: 90

20/1

Still looking for first success and is hard to recommend on back of disappointing return at Wincanton 51 days ago.

Form: 4/569F-P

Phoebe's Charm²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-11| J: G Sheehan| T: C Hobson| OR: 90

Tailed off in maiden/handicap hurdles in Ireland and was soon beaten on Huntingdon debut for new yard last month.

Form: 009500

Ryder's Rock^t²⁰⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: Brendan Powell| T: J Tizzard| OR: 88

14/1

May have been unsuited by longer trip when below par at Newton Abbot in October and looks a player on earlier form at this sort of trip.

Form: U-92275

Opticality^p²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-1| J: Cameron Iles⁽⁷⁾| T: M Hunt| OR: 80

6/1

Ran creditably in a couple of hurdle starts at Taunton this winter and has scored on Flat since. Not out of things,

Form: 58-45

Happy Index^v1¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 10-10| J: J M Quinlan| T: P R Webber| OR: 75

5/1

Off the mark in Ludlow handicap (21.3f) last spring but been more miss than hit since and is now tried in visor for first time.

Form: 12P845

Trickalight^p,h,t²²⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 10-7| J: Chris Ward⁽³⁾| T: Deborah Cole| OR: 72

14/1

Irish point winner but she remains with little form over hurdles. Back from 7 months off and is likely best watched. Hood/tongue strap back on.

Form: PP-8565

Forecasts

Lady Caro (13/8), Bethpage (11/4), Mays Hill (10/3), Happy Index (5/1), Opticality (6/1), Ryder's Rock (14/1), Trickalight (14/1), Konigin Isabella (20/1), Phoebe's Charm (50/1)

LADY CARO has been brought along gradually and has shown ability over hurdles. She can make a winning handicap debut. Ryder's Rock and Bethpage are also of interest.
