4/1
Progressive over hurdles last season and bright start over fences when second at Worcester on return. Below best in both starts since, however, including on return to this sphere at Kempton last time. Hood back on.

11/4
Lightly-raced mare who upped her game when second of 9 in handicap hurdle at Lingfield (23f, good to soft, 20/1) 58 days ago. 2 lb rise fair and looks a likely contender. Cheekpieces on first time.

9/2
Twice a winner over hurdles and fences but undone by jumping errors when fourth of 10 in handicap chase at Hereford (25.2f, soft) 59 days ago. However, 6 lb lower back over the smaller obstacles and is not taken lightly.

Bumper winner who posted her best effort over timber when good third of 11 in novice hurdle at Wincanton (21.4f, heavy) 19 days ago. May have more to offer on handicap debut here.

Successful twice from 4 starts between the flags and showed more than previously under Rules when second of 3 in novice hurdle at Hereford (21.7f, soft) 22 days ago. Further progress may be on the cards now sent handicapping.

Forecasts

Katie's Melody (5/2), Harmony Heights (11/4), Springs A Girl (4/1), Star Of Honour (9/2), Kosasiempre (9/2)

Verdict

HARMONY HEIGHTS stepped up on previous efforts over hurdles when runner-up on handicap debut at Lingfield last time and may have more to offer yet. She gets the nod in the finale. Katie's Melody may provide the chief threat.
