Age: 6| Weight: 11-3| J: Isabelle Ryder⁽⁷⁾| T: F Brennan| OR: 89

7/1

Maiden hurdler who came in only fourth of 6 in handicap hurdle at Plumpton (20.5f, good) 32 days ago. More is needed on her chase debut.

Age: 8| Weight: 10-11| J: Joe Williamson⁽³⁾| T: P A Kirby| OR: 83| D

5/2

A winning pointer but still a maiden under Rules and not proving the easiest to catch right too. Others make more appeal.

Forecasts

Ann D'arabie (11/10), Loud And Proud (6/4), Time Was (5/2), Eightytwo Team (9/2), Time For Tea (7/1)

ANN D'ARABIE has made a positive start to life over fences and is taken to get her head in front now at the chief expense of Loud And Proud who fluffed her lines when beaten in a match at Fakenham but could still have more to offer judged on her emphatic Doncaster success.
