Culzean⁷¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Alan Doyle⁽³⁾| T: I A Duncan

50/1

Offered little when sixth of 8 in C&D bumper (heavy) on debut in December.

Form: 6

Goulmichette²⁹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: Ben Sutton⁽⁵⁾| T: W P Mullins

10/11

€40,000 3-y-o, €170,000 5-y-o, No Risk At All mare. Half-sister to fair chaser Dourdour and fairly useful chaser Swapped. Dam ran twice over hurdles. Easy winner of sole start in Irish points, so obvious interest on Rules debut.

Latosca Du Houx

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Sean Quinlan| T: N G Richards

7/1

Gris De Gris mare. Half-sister to 2 winners, including useful hurdler After Rain, stayed 2½m. Dam French chaser (2¼m winner). Newcomers from yard often fancied in this sphere.

Oor Wish²⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: Bruce Lynn| T: N W Alexander

40/1

Getaway mare. Half-sister to fair staying hurdler Townhill. Shaped with some promise when fourth of 8 in a C&D bumper on debut 4 weeks ago and may improve.

Form: 4

Poetic Twist³⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: S Bowen| T: G Elliott

1/1

Poet's Word mare. Half-sister to bumper winner Starzand. Showed ability when fourth of 9 to subsequent Grade 2 winner Moonverrin in bumper at Cork on last month's debut and entitled to do better.

Form: 4

R Krista⁶⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Leah Noreci⁽¹⁰⁾| T: James Moffatt

50/1

Little impact in 2 bumpers 6 months apart.

Form: 76

Run Around Susie⁵⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: Callum Bewley| T: D Bourke

33/1

Getaway mare who ran to just a poor level at Carlisle on debut in December.

Form: 4

Forecasts

Goulmichette (8/15), Poetic Twist (3/1), Latosca Du Houx (11/2), Oor Wish (25/1), Run Around Susie (50/1), Culzean (50/1), R Krista (66/1)

POETIC TWIST shaped with promise behind subsequent Grade 2 winner Moonverrin on her debut at Cork last month, so she's fancied to get off the mark at the second time of asking. Goulmichette and Latosca du Houx are a pair of interesting Rules newcomers however, and strong market support for either would put a different slant on matters.
