Baby Kate^t1³⁰²

Age: 6| Weight: 10-11| J: Brian Hayes| T: W P Mullins

22/1

Lightly-raced winner under NH rules. 11¾ lengths sixth of 8 to Aurora Vega in Solerina Mares Novices' Hurdle at Fairyhouse (18.2f, soft, 10/3). Off 10 months. Tongue strap on for 1st time and big improvement required in this race, for all that cannot be ruled out.

Form: 110/16-

7/2

Reliable sort who ran right up to form when 1½ lengths third of 10 to Maxxum in Ballybin Hurdle (6/1) at Fairyhouse (20f, soft). Off 7 months but she sets the standard.

Age: 7| Weight: 10-11| J: Paul Townend| T: W P Mullins| OR: 133| D

5/6

Smart winner at up to 25f over fences. Career best when winning 5-runner listed chase at Perth (23.8f, soft, 4/7) by 4 lengths from Paggane. Off 7 months and major claims if translating that back to timber.

Form: 6P/1411-

Form: 342-221

12/1

Forecasts

Fun Fun Fun (5/6), Feet Of A Dancer (7/2), Mozzies Sister (7/2), The Great Nudie (12/1), Baby Kate (22/1)

FUN FUN FUN developed into a smart chaser last season and assuming she proves as effective over timber, she'll take plenty of stopping on her reappearance. Feet of A Dancer also makes her return to the track and this reliable mare is the obvious threat.
