28/1

Useful handicap hurdler, pulled up in Pertemps Final at Cheltenham last time. Has a return to jumping on the agenda but she clearly possesses plenty of class for a race like this.

Forecasts

Rubies Are Red (2/1), Elana Osario (5/2), Radar Ahead (7/2), Valinor (13/2), Bloom Vega (8/1), Realt Na Ri (10/1), Saol Gaelach (25/1), Gaoth Chuil (28/1), Eglantine (28/1), Gushing (33/1), Santa Princess (80/1), My Little Lady (100/1), Blue Electra (100/1), Shaool (200/1), Lady Gwendeline (200/1)

ELANA OSARIO has improved with each start and is fancied to open her account. The fantastically-bred Rubies Are Red, who has contested the English and Irish Oaks among other races this year, has to be feared back in a maiden with Ryan Moore up for the first time since her eye-catching effort at Lingfield in the spring. Radar Ahead is another to note.
