Eaton Hall Shooting Ground Mares' Handicap Chase (GBB Race)

3-time winner in small field chases last season (including this race) and in process of running well after 6 months off prior to falling 2 out over C&D 29 days ago (might have been placed). Well worthy of consideration provided that hasn't left a mark.

Dual bumper/hurdles winner for Jimmy Moffatt. 0-7 over fences but made decent start for this yard prior to an underwhelming fifth of 6 with cheekpieces fitted (retained here) when fifth of 6 in handicap chase at Newton Abbot (16.3f, soft) 17 days ago. Still, not one to write off.

Dual winning hurdler who has yet to scale same heights over larger obstacles, albeit returning from 6 months/for new yard when well held third in 4-runner listed chase at Chepstow (19.5f) 5 weeks ago. Return to handicaps rates more suitable and this promises to reveal more.

Fair hurdler who got off the mark in 5-runner maiden at Exeter (16.7f, good to firm) in March. 11-day turnaround may have caught her out when runner-up in mares' novice hurdle at Plumpton in April but interesting to see what the market makes of her now handicapping over larger obstacles.

Three-time hurdle winner who has improved further sent chasing faced with testing ground, gaining a second success from 3 starts in 5-runner handicap chase at Chepstow (19.4f, soft) in February. Certainly commands respect on return with any further rain likely to aid her cause.
