9/4
A fair 2m hurdles winner. Off 7 months before coming in last of 4 in handicap chase at Warwick (16.2f, good) on her debut over fences 17 days ago. Sent off favourite there so could still do better with that run under her belt.

Had a wind op before coming in a well-held fourth of 5 in handicap hurdle at Huntingdon (19.6f, good) 41 days ago. This maiden hurdler goes chasing now with plenty to prove.

6/1
A fairly useful hurdler/chaser in France who posted best efforts for current yard when placed in handicap chases at Wincanton and Leicester in December. However, lacklustre efforts all 3 starts since so questions to answer now.

11/10
Scored over hurdles at Hereford in November and cheekpieces on for 1st time when a solid fourth of 6 in handicap hurdle at Ludlow (15.8f, good) 50 days ago. A likely player here on her chase debut.

18/1
A winner over hurdles at Exeter in October 2023 but has struggled for the most part since over hurdles and fences, also refusing to race over fences once. Others are much preferred.

Forecasts

Culligran (11/10), Obsessedwithyou (9/4), Lady Pretender (6/1), Calli Black (15/2), Miss Marette (18/1)

Verdict

CULLIGRAN is the only one of this quintet who comes here in good form so John O'Shea's mare is taken to make a winning start over fences. Jamie Snowden's Obsessedwithyou failed to live up to market expectations when last of four on her chasing bow at Warwick but could emerge as the chief threat now ahead of Lady Pretender and Calli Black.

  2. Obsessedwithyou9/4
  3. Lady Pretender6/1
