Maiden posted her best efforts when third in back-to-back 2½m handicaps (good to soft) at Worcester earlier in the year. Still early days and she's entitled to be competitive if returning in similar form.
|
Fairly useful 3-time winner on Flat (including on heavy ground) for Harry Eustace and was much closer to that form on qualifying run over hurdles when runner-up in a 2½m novice at Worcester in May. Leading contender on handicap debut.
|
Best effort to date when third in a 2½m Sedgefield mares' maiden hurdle last month but not in the same form when a well held fourth at Newton Abbot (16.8f) just 5 days on. Back up in trip with Ben Jones aboard for the first time on handicap debut and interesting to see if market expects better.
|
Low-mileage 8-y-o who matched her exploits in novice company when third on handicap debut at this track (17.7f) but underperformed in first-time headgear (retained) when down-the-field at Plumpton last time. Could yet have more to offer returning to this course over a longer trip.
|
Fair maiden hurdler at best in France but no show in a couple of starts for Alan King earlier this year and shaped no better in a first-time hood (now removed) on stable debut in a Huntingdon novice 16 days ago. Plenty to prove back in a handicap.
|
A fair Flat winner for Nigel Hawke and has shown similar form in this sphere for present yard, placed on first 3 starts and likely to have completed that sequence when a tired faller at Market Rasen (20.6f) in July. Handles softer ground and place claims again on her return.
|
Solid handicap form last season, including when runner-up over C&D prior to opening her hurdles account in 15-runner Plumpton handicap (20.5f, soft) in December, staying on to lead dying strides. Plausible excuses on subsequent two starts and has solid claims if ready to roll on her reappearance.

Forecasts
Plus Point (9/4), Everest (5/2), Hello Cello (4/1), Ask Her Out (5/1), Clear Storm (9/1), Yanka Blue (16/1), Pate Mollee (250/1)
An open-looking handicap with little pace on paper and that may sway things in favour of fairly useful Flat performer PLUS POINT who posted her best effort when runner-up on qualifying run at Worcester in May and may be able to go one better on first start in a handicap hurdle. Ask Her Out had solid form in similar events last season and rates a series danger with conditions in her favour, while Hello Cello can place again if coping with the likely softer conditions.
