Southlands Care Home Mares' Novices' Hurdle (GBB Race)

Placed in Irish points and built on bumper third with success in novice at Uttoxeter. Got the better of the odds-on favourite when following up in a match race at Stratford and she holds obvious claims of completing the hat-trick if coping with the drop in trip (doesn't look short of speed).

Debut bumper winner who has progressed with each run over hurdles, off the mark at the third attempt at Worcester when last seen in June. Beat a subsequent winner with plenty in hand that day so she rates a serious player.

Found only one too good on all 3 outings in bumpers for Ryan Potter last summer. Left hurdles debut/return well behind when winning maiden at Market Rasen on second start for Shaun Lycett in June, suited by the way the race developed. Has since changed yards again.

Twice a winner on the Flat but she remains a maiden over hurdles and has plenty to find even on best form.

Make Believe mare. Half-sister to 3 winners on Flat, including useful 7f-1¼m winner Bobby K. Dam 9f winner.

Modest winner on the Flat. Well held switched to hurdles in recent weeks.

Strong claims on the form she showed when second in 2m Taunton novice in February but well below that level next 2 starts in the spring and yard remains quiet.
