13/2
Placed in points and showed promise in trio of bumpers in Ireland. Pick of his efforts for present yard was his second in a novice hurdle here in November 2024 but he hasn't made a great start in this sphere and others hold better claims.

7/2
C&D winner who advanced her form with in-frame finishes at Warwick/Lingfield (form franked) this winter but didn't get home upped to 2½m back at Warwick last time. Entitled to be in the mix returned to 2m.

4/7
Point winner who arrives on the up over fences, bagging handicaps (around 2m) at Market Rasen and Ffos Las last month. Escapes a penalty for latest victory in conditional jockeys' event so major claims.

10/1
Scored on her handicap hurdling bow at Bangor (2m4f) last February but well below that level in a handful of starts this term. Goes chasing now with lots to prove.

Forecasts

El Rojo Grande (4/7), Bobbi's Beauty (7/2), Desert Halo (13/2), Chosen Bae (10/1), Angel's Dream (10/1)

Verdict

EL ROJO GRANDE has really found his feet of late and is difficult to oppose in his hat-trick bid given he goes unpenalised for his recent Ffos Las conditional jockeys' victory. C&D scorer Bobbi's Beauty rates much the biggest threat now back at her optimum trip.
