Get A Superstar^p¹⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: Charlie Hammond| T: Dr R Newland & J Insole| OR: 94| D

4/1

Took advantage of career-low mark when gaining a first chase success at Market Rasen on return and didn't have to improve when following up there last month. Inconvenienced by the step up to nearly 3m at Carlisle since and he's respected back hurdling.

Form: 35/7-113

Stellarmasterpiece^p¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-3| J: S Bowen| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 85| CD

10/11

Arrives on the back of 2 wins here and still looks well treated on her Flat form as she bids for a course hat-trick.

Form: 6/355-11

Mystic Wind^h,t1¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 11-2| J: Tristan Durrell| T: D Skelton| OR: 89

40/1

Well held in 3 qualifying runs but he's in top hands so no surprise if he fared much better in handicaps at some point. Tongue strap on for 1st time.

Form: 577

Northern Rose^p,t²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 10-11| J: James Davies| T: G Hanmer| OR: 79

3/1

Long-standing maiden. Left comeback well behind when just denied over 2m here 3 weeks ago and can make her presence felt again.

Form: 8232-92

Kotgar^v1³³

Age: 5| Weight: 10-6| J: Ellis Collier⁽⁵⁾| T: Mrs C Williams| OR: 74

17/2

Regressed further over hurdles last season and made limited impact fitted with cheekpieces fitted on return here last month. Visor now given a whirl.

Form: 647P5-5

Ghost Pepper²³⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 10-5| J: James Turner⁽⁵⁾| T: D Brace| OR: 70

18/1

Attracted support on final start for D. J. Jeffreys but remains with little form. Off 7 months.

Form: 66/7P6P-

Hopjes^t³³

Age: 6| Weight: 10-5| J: Miss Megan Bevan⁽⁷⁾| T: H Dickin| OR: 66

66/1

Poor form on Flat and offered little in this sphere.

Form: 4/UP0-97

Forecasts

Stellarmasterpiece (10/11), Northern Rose (3/1), Get A Superstar (4/1), Kotgar (17/2), Ghost Pepper (18/1), Mystic Wind (40/1), Hopjes (66/1)

STELLARMASTERPIECE remains on a good mark on her Flat form so can complete a course hat-trick. Northern Rose went close to breaking her duck here 3 weeks ago so is next best ahead of Get A Superstar.
