Interlink Talent Solutions Mares' Handicap Hurdle

Off time: 18:35 | Winning time: 4m 57.36s

Queens Wish⁸³

Age: 6| Weight: 12-0| J: James Bowen| T: C & A Pogson| OR: 100

9/4

Successful sole run between the flags and winning start for Dan Skelton under Rules in a 17f maiden hurdle at Newcastle in January. No real progress since, but stable debut third in a Market Rasen handicap (16.6f, good to firm) last time was fairly encouraging and she's one to consider.

Form: 1/137-33

Reel Rosie⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 12-0| J: Sean Quinlan| T: J Candlish| OR: 100| D

10/1

Fairly useful handicapper at best on the Flat and off mark over hurdles at second attempt at Sedgefield in November. Hasn't gone on as hoped since (early faller tried over fences last time), though, and she's probably worth taking on.

Form: 1336-6F

Bella Civena⁵⁰⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-13| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: H D Daly| OR: 99

3/1

Looked potentially useful when landing a Market Rasen junior hurdle (16.6f, heavy) in March 2023. Belatedly matched that form when third in a 19f Taunton handicap when last seen, but subsequent 16-month absence is naturally a concern ahead of this yard debut.

Lone Star^t¹⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-8| J: Joe Williamson⁽³⁾| T: P A Kirby| OR: 94| D

5/1

Market Rasen winner in June and followed that with a good second at the same course later that month. By no means disgraced when sixth of 15 at Hexham last time and she needs considering here off 1 lb lower.

Form: 4P12P6

Princesse Milania^t1²²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: S Bowen| T: O Murphy| OR: 86

16/1

Point winner who was third on Rules debut in a Worcester bumper in June. No show in 3 runs over hurdles since, but entirely possible that she'll be seen in a better light now upped in trip for this handicap debut in a first-time tongue strap.

Form: 21-3680

Shesupincourt^t¹⁵⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 10-11| J: Benjamin Poste| T: R Potter| OR: 83| D

18/1

Latest success in this sphere gained back in December 2023, but she managed to get the job done over fences at Leicester in February. Hasn't really threatened in 3 subsequent starts, despite finishing second twice, and she's opposable for win purposes back hurdling here.

Form: 431242-

Brionywells²²

Age: 5| Weight: 10-9| J: Kielan Woods| T: D Killahena & G McPherson| OR: 81

14/1

Well held in 3 bumpers and limited appeal now handicapping following a trio of similarly low-key displays in this sphere.

Form: 0/89-390

Chosen Bae^h²¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 10-4| J: Dylan Johnston⁽³⁾| T: R Potter| OR: 76| D

7/1

Placed in Irish points and left previous Rules form a long way behind when narrowly prevailing on handicap debut at Bangor (19.6f, heavy) in February. Up 4 lb and will need to take another step forward if she's to follow up here.

Form: 23P/801-

Little Miller^t1¹¹²

Age: 6| Weight: 10-3| J: J J Burke| T: D J Jeffreys| OR: 75

11/1

Successful sole start between the flags, but no show in 4 starts over hurdles to date, including on handicap debut (first run following a wind op) over 3m at Ffos Las when last seen in May. Tongue strap now added and drop in trip may suit, but others preferred overall.

Form: 1/876-5

Solway Staree²⁷¹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-2| J: Peter Kavanagh| T: Miss L Harrison| OR: 68

80/1

Remains winless following a dozen starts overall and she's readily passed over.

Form: 7P/0058-

Forecasts

Queens Wish (9/4), Bella Civena (3/1), Bobbigrey (4/1), Lone Star (5/1), Chosen Bae (7/1), Reel Rosie (10/1), Little Miller (11/1), Brionywells (14/1), Princesse Milania (16/1), Shesupincourt (18/1), Solway Staree (80/1)

QUEENS WISH failed to progress for Dan Skelton, but there were positives to take from her stable debut third at Market Rasen and she could be the answer now moving back up in trip. Next on the list is Lone Star, who will be a danger to all if reproducing the level of form she showed in June and Bobbigrey is also entitled to respect.
