Aj's Diamond⁴⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Rex Dingle| T: C Gordon

4/1

Promise when 7 lengths second on heavy-ground Warwick debut 44 days ago, pulling clear of the rest. Sets a decent standard for the rest fo aim at.

Form: 2

Anbowlin

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Joe Anderson⁽³⁾| T: Jamie Snowden

9/1

Milan mare. Sister to bumper winner Noahsgreatrainbow. Dam unraced half-sister to bumper winner/useful hurdler (stayed 2½m) City Slicker. Makes paper appear but Gavin Sheehan is on the yard's other runner.

Commanche Princess³¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Mr Caoilin Quinn| T: Mrs A J Perrett

80/1

Well held on Kempton debut and pulled up at Fontwell since. Can only watch.

Form: 7P

Girlfromtheglen¹⁶⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Freddie Gordon⁽³⁾| T: N J Henderson

5/2

£35,000 buy after finishing second in an Irish point in October. Somewhat surprisingly her leading yard has yet to have a bumper winner this season but she's still much respected, particularly if the betting vibes are strong.

Form: 2

Hard Market

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Jack Hogan⁽³⁾| T: F O'Brien

16/1

Telescope mare. Half-sister to 3 winners, including bumper winner/fair hurdler Sand Fly and bumper winner/fair 2m hurdle winner All Clenched Up. One to take seriously on debut.

Form:

Jack N Jones

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: G Sheehan| T: Jamie Snowden

16/5

Cosily won sole start in Irish points back in March 2023. It's taken a long time for new connections to get her to the track but stable jockey Gavin Sheehan is on her rather than Anbowlin and it'll be interesting to see what the betting makes of her.

Form:

What A Peach

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Tom Broughton⁽⁵⁾| T: F Brennan

16/1

Frontiersman mare. Half-sister to fairly useful chaser Party Fuzz. The stable is 0-25 in bumpers in the last 5 seasons.

Form:

Ace Artist³⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 10-6| J: M Goldstein| T: H Morrison

12/1

Has a good pedigree for bumpers but could only finish 20 lengths fifth of 6 on her Newbury debut 5 weeks ago.

Form: 5

Arayapearl

Age: 4| Weight: 10-6| J: S Bowen| T: P & M Bowen

6/1

Jack Hobbs filly. Half-sister to bumper winner/fairly useful 19f/2½m hurdle winner Park This One and bumper winner/fairly useful 3m hurdle winner Ayiko. Needs checking out in the betting for a yard with a 6-29 bumper record this season.

Forecasts

Girlfromtheglen (5/2), Jack N Jones (16/5), Aj's Diamond (4/1), Arayapearl (6/1), Anbowlin (9/1), Ace Artist (12/1), Hard Market (16/1), What A Peach (16/1), Commanche Princess (80/1), Sukrain (100/1)

AJ'S DIAMOND is the percentage call on the back of her Warwick second, although a strong market move for the likes of Girlfromtheglen and/or Hard Market would put a slightly different slant on things.
