Flying Sara (1/1), Midnight Callisto (11/8), Ma Belle Noire (5/1), Parisian Blue (13/2), Briery Express (13/2), Salcombe (12/1), Talk Of The Moon (25/1), The Height Of Fame (150/1), Firefly Lane (150/1), Lady Ironside (200/1)

A dual, fairly useful winner in bumpers, FLYING SARA has acquitted herself with credit in a pair of listed contests in that sphere this winter and she could be the way to go now hurdling in a race lacking depth. Ma Belle Noire should come on for her hurdles debut effort at Uttoxeter and is a threat, along with Midnight Callisto who boasts the benefit of plenty of experience.
