Desert Halo¹⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Harry Bannister| T: R Bandey| OR: 98

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.

Form: 444-4U7

Bobbi's Beauty³⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 12-0| J: Freddie Keighley⁽⁷⁾| T: M Keighley| OR: 98| CD

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.

Form: 731-244

El Rojo Grande⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 10-9| J: Sean Houlihan| T: Katy Price| OR: 79| D

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.

Form: 2-25211

Chosen Bae^h,t¹⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 10-2| J: Ned Fox⁽⁵⁾| T: R Potter| OR: 72

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)

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.
