13/2

Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. Seventh of 10 in handicap hurdle at Cartmel (22.1f, good to soft) 127 days ago. Can give a good account if shrugging off latest effort.

Best run over hurdles when fifth of 9 in novice at Newcastle (16.9f, good to soft) 7 months ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut but others look better treated at these weights.

4/1

Respectable sixth of 13 in handicap hurdle at Perth (20.2f, good, 9/1) 22 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Irish raider holds good claims.

66/1

40/1

100/1, last of 6 in novice hurdle at Carlisle (19.3f, good) 175 days ago. Much more required now going into handicaps.

Forecasts

Zamond (6/4), Bella Union (4/1), Reel Rosie (4/1), Vanilla Dancer (13/2), Our Laura B (7/1), Balranald (12/1), Jackpot D'athou (14/1), Mr Rumbalicious (14/1), Snapaudaciaheros (22/1), Smart Bucks (40/1), Macho Sun (50/1), Oasis Prince (50/1), Snitterfield (66/1), Cross Of Redmoor (80/1)

C&D scorer REEL ROSIE looks the way to go here given she can race off a 3 lb lower mark than when a resurgent Uttoxeter fifth, although Irish challenger Bella Union is also weighted to go well and Bangor runner-up Zamond commands plenty of respect too.
