Pitwood Road⁴⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 12-2| J: Danny McMenamin| T: N G Richards| OR: 112

10/3

Justified support, returned to hurdling for new yard, when winning 8-runner handicap at Carlisle (19.3f, soft) 44 days ago, finding extra. 7 lb higher now but ought to go well again.

Form: 042FP-1

Mary Stanford^t⁶⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-11| J: B S Hughes| T: P Neville| OR: 107

16/1

Winning pointer but has failed to build on her hurdling debut Hexham second in 2 subsequent outings, including on first start for new connections at Catterick in November. Goes handicapping with something to prove.

Form: 1/2P-5

Just Call Me Lucy⁶²

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: Jamie Hamilton| T: M Walford| OR: 105| D

2/1

Fairly useful bumper winner who scored at Wetherby last winter. Has made an encouraging return this season, suited by step back up in trip when chasing home a thriving winner back at same course (19.7f) last time. That form is strong for the grade and she remains one to be interested in.

Form: 312P-42

Twistthenightaway³⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: Tristan Durrell| T: D Skelton| OR: 102

10/1

Disappointed at Hereford (16.2f) latest but had offered to something to work on in a couple of starts prior to that and the return to this longer trip is very much in her favour on handicap debut. Shortlisted.

Form: 3-556

Rose's Dart⁷⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| J: P W Wadge| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 101

28/1

Runner-up on first of her 2 starts in bumpers and stepped up on what was a pretty low-key hurdles debut when third in mares' maiden at Wetherby (19.7f) in March. Not offered much in either start this term, though.

Form: 2063-60

Our Laura B^t1⁸²

20/1

A fair winner in 2023 over C&D but has failed to complete in a couple of starts since returning from a lengthy absence this term. Tongue strap on for first time. Had wind operation.

Form: P/444-PP

It's Maisy⁴⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 10-12| J: Jack Power⁽⁵⁾| T: J Parkinson & S Smith| OR: 94| D

9/5

Multiple winner over timber but her last success came back in 2024. Handicapper has relented at least but she may find this test on the sharp side.

Form: 4P4-458

Forecasts

It's Maisy (9/5), Just Call Me Lucy (2/1), Pitwood Road (10/3), Lizzie Luna (7/2), Twistthenightaway (10/1), Mary Stanford (16/1), Our Laura B (20/1), Rose's Dart (28/1)

Preference is for JUST CALL ME LUCY, who posted a personal best when runner-up to a progressive sort at Wetherby in November and remains fairly treated. Twistthenightaway and Pitwood Road are feared most.
