Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: E Walsh⁽³⁾| T: Ciaran Murphy| OR: 112| D

7/1

Irish raider who won a Kilbeggan bumper last summer and confirmed previous promise in this sphere when taking 14-runner maiden hurdle at Limerick (16.3f) in October. Struggled in Grade 3 company thereafter and this much more suitable back from a break.

Rula Bula²³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: Jonjo O'Neill Jr.| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 121| D

11/10

Fairly useful in bumpers and perfect start in this sphere when a ready winner of mares' maiden at Market Rasen (20.6f) in November. Improved when second at listed level next time prior to being pulled up on handicap debut at Chepstow 23 days ago but well worth another chance to get back on the up.

Form: 142-12P

Cracker Muddle

Age: 7| Weight: 11-2| J: N F Houlihan| T: G & J Moore

25/1

Kayf Tara mare. Dam (c110/h75), 25f chase winner, half-sister to fairly useful hurdle winner/useful chaser (stayed 21f) Not Another Muddle (by Kayf Tara). Betting should unearth some clues on debut.

Game Colours^t³²

Age: 7| Weight: 11-2| J: S Bowen| T: Ben Clarke| OR: 112

5/4

Had wind surgery after pulling up on debut and placed on all 4 starts since, shaping better than the bare result when third on handicap debut at Fakenham (20f) 32 days ago. Respected with Sean Bowen again in the plate.

Form: 2P3-223

Kupka Vallis²³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: R Patrick| T: C Boultbee-Brooks

66/1

Saint des Saints mare who didn't go unsupported but ultimately seemed to find things tough in the conditions when eighth of 13 in novice hurdle at Chepstow (2m, heavy) on debut 23 days ago. Likely she can do better with that initial experience behind her.

Surrey Nemesis³³⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Caoilin Quinn| T: A Irvine

300/1

Little in the way of solid form in a trio of bumpers and well beaten on hurdles bow at Fontwell 11 months ago. Hard to make a case for starting out for new stable.

Rula Bula (11/10), Game Colours (5/4), Miss Dishy (7/1), Cracker Muddle (25/1), Kupka Vallis (66/1), That's All Folks (100/1), Surrey Nemesis (300/1)

RULA BULA needs to shrug off her latest run at Chepstow 23 days ago, yet she'd previously looked a mare to keep on side, not least when posting a fairly useful effort when second in listed company. She gets the nod to bounce back, with Game Colours, who continues to shape up well, and Irish raider Miss Dishy heading up the dangers.
