4/7

A fair 2m4f winner over hurdles who produced her best effort yet in this sphere when finishing a very good third of 8 in handicap chase at Warwick (20f, good to soft) 20 days ago. That appeals as solid form for the grade and she's very much one to consider down in trip.

Irish Chorus²²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: Thomas Bellamy| T: A King| OR: 104

5/2

Winless over hurdles but she undoubtedly shaped better than the distance beaten suggests following 7 months off when fourth of 9 in handicap chase at Lingfield (2m) on debut over fences 22 days ago, all but coming down 2 out. Type to improve from that and she's of interest.

Form: 3U6F4-4

Lynsey Larue¹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 10-2| J: S Bowen| T: Evan Williams| OR: 82

6/1

Dual Irish point winner who has failed to make a significant impact in 5 runs over hurdles this year, albeit finishing closer than previously when fifth of 8 in handicap hurdle at Hereford (16.2f) 15 days ago. Switch to chasing needs to have positive effect now.

Form: 1-45975

Forecasts

Settle Down Jill (4/7), Irish Chorus (5/2), Belle Montrose (4/1), Lynsey Larue (6/1)

SETTLE DOWN JILL produced her best effort yet in a strong-looking race for the grade when third in a mares' handicap chase at Warwick 3 weeks ago and, with the ease back down in trip not expected to pose any fears, she looks a big player once more. Irish Chorus shaped much better than the distance beaten suggests on her respective chasing debut at Lingfield recently and she's fancied to pose the chief threat.
