Addosh^h,t¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Ben Bromley⁽⁵⁾| T: James Owen| OR: 100| D

11/4

Good second in Flat handicap at Southwell (16.5f) 13 days ago. Proving a reliable sort for her current yard and a likely player back over hurdles.

Demoiselle Kap^t⁶³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: Sean Quinlan| T: J Candlish| OR: 98| D

11/2

Inconsistent performer. Sole run for Keiran Burke when seventh of 9 in handicap hurdle at Ludlow (15.8f, soft) 63 days ago. Others appeal more.

Form: 51P-947

Belle Montrose^t²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: G Sheehan| T: S Drinkwater| OR: 90

4/1

Still a maiden but she posted a good fifth of 17 in handicap hurdle at Wincanton (15.2f, soft) 20 days ago, staying on well. Not taken lightly.

Form: 7-54355

Winds Of Winter³⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 11-1| J: B S Hughes| T: I Jardine| OR: 87

4/1

Remains winless but she came in an encouraging third of 7 in handicap chase at Musselburgh (20.3f, soft) on her debut over fences 35 days ago. In the mix back over hurdles.

Form: 623223

Mullins Cross^p²³⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 11-1| J: Ben Smith⁽⁷⁾| T: R M Smith| OR: 87| D

50/1

Doubled her career tally at Bangor in December 2023 but hasn't been able to match that level since, fourth of 14 at Downpatrick (17.8f, good) when last seen in June. Off 7 months ahead of first run since leaving John Joseph Hanlon.

Form: 558-504

Granny B^h³⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: C J Todd| T: M Mullineaux| OR: 86

33/1

Fair winner at 5f on flat. Below form fourth of 8 in handicap hurdle (66/1) at Doncaster (16.6f, good to soft) 38 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter if she's to get off the mark in this sphere.

Form: 66374

Lady Buttercup³⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: Charlie Maggs⁽⁵⁾| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 84

22/1

Landed bumper at Warwick in September. However, she hasn't shown much in 3 starts over hurdles since so others are preferred.

Form: 99-1668

Lillistar⁴¹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-9| J: C O'Farrell| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 81

40/1

Fair maiden on Flat (stays 1¼m) for Harry & Roger Charlton but well held over hurdles and efforts on the level for this yard hardly encouraging, either.

Form: 587-7

Milajess^t,v⁴¹

Age: 8| Weight: 10-6| J: Joshua Thompson⁽⁷⁾| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 78

5/1

Remains a maiden after 22 runs but she recorded a respectable fifth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Wetherby (16f, soft) 41 days ago. Possibilities.

Form: 7-92745

Gine Sacre²²²

Age: 9| Weight: 10-2| J: Bruce Lynn| T: Eloise Quayle| OR: 74

14/1

Still a maiden and cheekpieces tried when only seventh of 9 in handicap hurdle at Cartmel (22.1f) in June for Pauline Robson. Needs this yard switch to spark a resurgence.

Form: 43/P-677

Forecasts

Addosh (11/4), Love True (7/2), Winds Of Winter (4/1), Belle Montrose (4/1), Milajess (5/1), Demoiselle Kap (11/2), Gine Sacre (14/1), Lady Buttercup (22/1), Granny B (33/1), Lillistar (40/1), Mullins Cross (50/1)

ADDOSH comes here on the back of a good recent Flat run at Southwell so is taken to resume winning ways back in this sphere at the chief expense of in-form maidens Belle Montrose and Winds of Winter who can chase home James Owen's mare in that order. Milajess completes the shortlist.
