2/1
Winning hurdler who showed improved form to open her account over fences at just the second attempt at Huntingdon 5 weeks ago by 8 lengths from Ede'iffs Rock, easily. Now has to back that up off 7 lb higher but big shout if she does.

Three-time chase winner in 2021/22 but refused to race at Cheltenham over 2 years ago and not seen since. Handicapper has given her a chance at least.

4/1
Hurdles winner who finally got off the mark over fences when taking advantage of reduced mark at Fakenham on New Year's Day. Ran to a similar level up 7 lb when fourth there next time though was reluctant to start. Others more solid.

5/1
Opened her chasing account at Lingfield a year ago and has acquitted herself well this term, placed 3 times. Trip too far at Plumpton last time so expected to bounce back in a change of headgear.

Fair hurdler and left behind her chase debut when scoring in mares' handicap at Fakenham. Backed that up with good second to Space Voyage at Huntingdon (no match with winner but 9 lb better off now). One paced back down in trip at Plumpton since and this distance more suitable nowadays.

Forecasts

Ede'iffs Rock (2/1), Space Voyage (2/1), Gazette Bourgeoise (4/1), So Said I (5/1), Legends Ryde (22/1)

Verdict

SPACE VOYAGE easily beat Ede'iffs Rock at Huntingdon 5 weeks ago on only her second chase start and she should have more to offer in this sphere. Ede'iffs Rock can make more of a race of it with the help of a 9 lb swing, while So Said I should also be in the mix returned to a suitable trip.

  1. Space Voyage2/1
  2. Ede'iffs Rock2/1
  3. So Said I5/1
