7/1

Showed some fair form in bumpers but made mistakes and was held in fifth when fell last in juvenile hurdle at Wetherby (16f, heavy, 22/1) on hurdles bow 53 days ago. Hood goes on now and can still do better.

Briefly³²

Age: 4| Weight: 10-7| J: Ben Godfrey⁽³⁾| T: A J Honeyball

11/2

Fair form shown when second of 7 in bumper at Chepstow (16f, soft) 32 days ago. In good hands so she's much respected on her hurdles debut.

Form: 632

Low Tolerance³⁴

200/1

Only eighth of 9 in bumper (80/1) at Wetherby (16f, heavy) on NH debut 34 days ago. Makes hurdles debut with plenty more needed.

Form: 8

She's Notjoeking⁴⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 10-7| J: P W Wadge⁽³⁾| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell

10/3

Milan filly who made a winning start in junior bumper at Newcastle (14.3f) in November. Showed some promise when second of 3 in juvenile hurdle at Carlisle (17f, soft) on hurdles bow 46 days ago so needs considering.

Form: 152

Forecasts

I Wish You (4/5), She's Notjoeking (10/3), Briefly (11/2), Knomorediamonds (7/1), Low Tolerance (200/1)

Lucinda Russell holds a strong hand here with three of the five runners and clear form pick I WISH YOU can gain a deserved first success after posting three promising runner-up efforts. Anthony Honeyball's newcomer Briefly could emerge as the main danger ahead of the selection's stablemate Knomorediamonds.
