10/1
On a lengthy losing run and failed to build on mild promise of C&D run when tailed-off last of 5 in hurdle at Uttoxeter (14/1) 40 days ago. First-time blinkers employed.

6/5
Looked better than ever when winning 7-runner C&D handicap (15/2) 13 days ago, benefiting from a strong pace and staying on well to lead before the last. Clearly in form and could be hard to beat up 5 lb.

4/1
Still seeking a first career win and finished fifth of 7 in handicap hurdle at Down Royal (7/4) 82 days ago, taking a strong hold before weakening. May need more severe headgear to help settle better.

9/2
Cashed in on a falling mark in 8-runner handicap hurdle at Worcester (12/1) 16 days ago, keeping on well from last to lead close home. Back up in trip, which isn't an issue and this veteran seems likely to give it another good go.

18/1
Below form in 2023 runs, last seen pulling up in handicap hurdle at Kelso (5/2) in September of that year. Cheekpieces removed and comes with clear risks attached after such a long absence.

13/2
Unreliable sort who placed in 3 of last 5 starts, though ran a typical race when fifth of 7 in chase handicap at Warwick (11/2) 30 days ago, folding tamely. Returns to hurdles back in trip but opposable for win purposes.

Forecasts

Land Girl's Luck (6/5), Real Empire (4/1), G'day Aussie (9/2), Mrs Tabitha (13/2), Grey Skies (10/1), Zamond (18/1)

Verdict

LAND GIRL'S LUCK has found form with two recent victories, latterly over C&D 13 days ago, and she's taken to complete the hat-trick. G'day Aussie returned to winning ways at Worcester recently and is feared most in a race lacking depth.

  1. Land Girl's Luck6/5
  2. G'day Aussie9/2
  3. Mrs Tabitha13/2
