Merely A Detail⁵⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 11-7| J: Jordan Nailor| T: T Bulgin

28/1

Form: 107

Amber Waves

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: Ben Jones| T: Miss E C Lavelle

11/1

Ulysses filly. Closely related to fairly useful hurdler/chase winner Gyenyame and half-sister to 2 winners on Flat. Dam 2-y-o 1m winner who stayed 10.5f. Makes some paper appeal for a yard with a 3-11 bumper record this season.

Form:

And She Was

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: Thomas Bellamy| T: A King

22/1

Linda's Lad filly. Half-sister to numerous winners, including useful hurdler/smart chaser Warriors Tale and bumper winner/fairly useful 21f hurdle winner Samarquand. A likely type on paper.

Form:

Astra Luna^h1,t⁵⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: James Bowen| T: J A OsborneWS

80/1

Hinted at ability when seventh on Ludlow debut but last of 8 over C&D since. Subsequently had wind surgery. Also has a hood added to the tongue tie she's worn previously.

Form: 78

Crystal Spring¹⁰⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: Charlie Hammond| T: S Edmunds

15/2

Stepped up on debut when 3 lengths third of 10 at Doncaster in November. Respected back from a break.

Form: 63

Indigo Blu

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: Finn Lambert⁽³⁾| T: Miss J S Davis

16/1

£6,000 Maxios filly. Closely related to fairly useful 2m hurdle winner Joseph Conrad and fair 2m hurdle winner Limetree Boy, stays 2½m. A watching brief is advised on debut.

Form:

Kittys Glance

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: Tom Cannon| T: A King

9/4

Passing Glance filly. Dam (c117/h116), 21f-3m hurdle winner, sister to useful hurdler (stayed 2½m) West Cork. One of 2 well-bred newcomers from the stable. The betting should help to separate them.

Form:

Miz Klimt

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: Tabitha Worsley⁽³⁾| T: J Coulson

200/1

Gustav Klimt filly. Half-sister to 6f-9f winner Coins Cross. Dam unraced. Likely outsider on debut.

Form:

Ride Like A Girl^h1⁹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: G Sheehan| T: Jamie Snowden| BF

9/2

Strong in the betting and found just one too good on her introduction at Stratford (good to soft) at the end of October. Confirmed she possesses a fair level of ability when third at Newbury (soft) 7 weeks later. Equipped with a first-time hood back from 3 months off.

Form: 23

Shotgun Shirley⁴³

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: L Wadham

9/2

Half-sister to a couple of useful jumpers and made a promising start to her career when second of 9 at Market Rasen 6 weeks ago, staying on after the winner got first run. Open to improvement.

Form: 2

Skittish

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: J J Burke| T: H Morrison

12/1

Stimulation filly. Sister to bumper winner/fairly useful hurdler Canoodle. Makes paper appeal for a stable no stranger to bumper success.

Form:

Tullow Troop

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: S Bowen| T: T H Weston

8/1

Jack Hobbs filly. Dam (h101), 2½m/21f hurdle winner, half-sister to smart hurdler/very smart chaser (2m-3m winner) Black Hercules. The stable has done well in bumpers this season, including another winner on Sunday, and she'd enter the reckoning if the betting vibes are strong.

Form:

Non-Runners

Night Burlesque⁵⁶

Weight: 11-0| Age: 4

T: Mrs M Rowley J: Charlie Deutsch

Forecasts

Kittys Glance (9/4), Ride Like A Girl (9/2), Shotgun Shirley (9/2), Crystal Spring (15/2), Tullow Troop (8/1), Amber Waves (11/1), Skittish (12/1), Indigo Blu (16/1), And She Was (22/1), Night Burlesque (25/1), Merely A Detail (28/1), Astra Luna (80/1), Miz Klimt (200/1)

There was plenty to like about SHOTGUN SHIRLEY's opening second at Market Rasen and she's taken to go one better for a stable no stranger to bumper success here. Ride Like A Girl and Crystal Spring have the form to figure back from breaks, while Skittish and Alan King pair Kitty's Glance and And She Was are newcomers who are bred for the job.
