Caught the eye in maiden/novice hurdles and similar story in handicaps, including when fifth of 11 at Chepstow (13/2) 19 days ago, finishing with running left. Remains capable of better.

12/1
Ended losing run with consecutive wins in handicap hurdles on heavy ground in February, winning in a field of 7 at Bangor-On-Dee (11/4 favourite) on final outing. Goes well fresh and has to be respected in hat-trick bid.

8/1
Had shown decidedly little prior to opening her account in 7-runner handicap hurdle here (5/2 favourite) after 7-month break, showing significant improvement. Question remains if this progress will continue.

4/1
Showed improvement with consecutive second-place finishes before falling heavily at second hurdle when disputing lead in handicap at Southwell (5/2) 26 days ago in first-time cheekpieces. Cheekpieces now removed and previous form suggests she ought to be competitive.

6-y-o who showed little in a trio of novice hurdles in 2024 but appeals as the sort who could do better now venturing into handicaps from a low base up in trip. Sean Bowen booked.

Forecasts

Dance Rules (13/8), Klic Boum (2/1), Lady Henrietta (4/1), Ten Ten Twenty (9/2), Jewel Eyed Judy (8/1), Welcheston Warrier (10/1), Richardson (12/1)

Verdict

KLIC BOUM once again caught the eye finishing with running left at Chepstow 19 days ago and, with this stiffer track sure to suit, he's taken to capitalise on an easing mark. Mudlark Richardson goes well fresh and is respected in his hat-trick bid, with Lady Henrietta another to consider.
