Ascending Lark^t1³⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: Lorcan Williams| T: Harry Derham| D

8/13

Made winning start for Harry Derham when taking 8-runner novice (85/40) at Haydock (15.6f, soft) on hurdles bow 36 days ago. Likely more to come yet.

Form: 237-1

Belladinotte¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Jamie Hamilton| T: M Walford

150/1

No impact in Market Rasen bumper on NH debut 15 days ago and can only be watched on switch to hurdles.

Form: 9

Cindysox⁵⁵⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: Tabitha Worsley⁽³⁾| T: Jamie Snowden

40/1

Far from disgraced in bumper at Uttoxeter on NH debut in October 2022 but not seen since and is likely best watched on return/hurdles bow.

Form: 6-

Lady D'arbanville⁸⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: James Bowen| T: N J Henderson

13/8

Looked potentially useful, back from 19 months off, when winning 11-runner mares' bumper at Plumpton in December and made solid start to hurdling career when second at Exeter (16.7f) in January. Likely capable of better yet over timber.

Form: 2-12

Locken Lady²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Bryan Carver| T: A M Hales

12/1

Left bumper form behind when runner-up in C&D novice on hurdles debut last month. Not in quite same form at Market Rasen since but must enter calculations.

Form: 1725

Fennella⁴⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-8| J: Henry Brooke| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero

150/1

From a winning family but went with little encouragement in bumper at Hereford on NH debut 47 days ago. Tries hurdling now.

Forecasts

Ascending Lark (8/13), Lady D'arbanville (13/8), Locken Lady (12/1), Arenas Del Tiempo (20/1), Cindysox (40/1), Lady Hobbs (100/1), Belladinotte (150/1), Fennella (150/1)

This can go to LADY D'ARBANVILLE, who stands out on her bumper form and is entitled to progress from her debut in this sphere at Exeter in January. Ascending Lark and Locken Lady look the obvious dangers.
