Made the most of her experience when striking at the second time of asking in bumpers in 8-runner contest at Kelso (16.2f, good, 13/8) 39 days ago, running on. More needed under a penalty in what is a deeper affair.

3/1
£40,000 3-y-o, £180,000 5-y-o, Blue Bresil mare. Dam (h105), 2¼m hurdle winner, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/chaser (15f-17f winner) Fair Loch. Won sole start in points (Jan 2025) and well worth a look on Rules debut for stable with solid record in this sphere.

Timeform
Jack Hobbs filly. Dam, poor maiden hurdler, sister to fairly useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 29f) Big Casino. Starts out with her stable having made a sound start to the campaign and noteworthy if the market vibes proved positive.

€11,500 3-y-o, Vadamos filly. Closely related to useful hurdler/chaser Up The Straight, stays 3m, and half-sister to bumper winner Mare Quimby, stays 2½m.

5/1
Won sole start in point bumpers and bright start when third in a Warwick bumper back in May. Similar form when edged out on line in 8-runner contest at Southwell (15.8f) the following month and whilst she will need to step up again, a stronger gallop to aim at could see her in a better light here.

€8,000 3-y-o, Kingston Hill filly who was friendless in the betting (sent off at 250/1) but she still shaped with a level of encouragement when sixth of 18 in bumper at Cheltenham (16.8f, good) on debut back in April. Feasible to think she can build on that now. Hood on 1st time.

€90,000 3-y-o, Motivator filly. Half-sister to fairly useful French chaser Jango d'Airy and fair hurdler/chase winner Iskar d'Airy. Of obvious interest on debut representing top stable.
|
Timeform
€54,000 Poet's Word filly who made a bright start when 1 length second of 9 in a Worcester bumper (2m) back in May. Pedigree suggests she can do better again and no surprise to see her thereabouts on this return from 5 months off.

Forecasts

Lady Motivator (11/4), Edith Pelham (3/1), Lyrical Choice (9/2), Ladies Day (5/1), Dotties Promise (11/2), Hey Flint (16/1), I'llhaveabitofthat (18/1), Lady Dapple Rose (22/1), Milano Lady (33/1)

Verdict

Those with experience set only a fair standard so this could be prime for one of the bumper newcomers. EDITH PELHAM and Lady Motivator both appeal on paper for stables boasting good records in this discipline, with the former, a winner of an Irish point narrowly preferred before market clues. Lyrical Choice and Lady Dapple Rose are others to consider.
