| Bumper winner who, away from soft ground for the first time over hurdles, improved when runner-up in a Catterick novice in December. After 11 weeks off (had a second breathing operation), pulled up on handicap debut at Kelso last time, but she's capable of getting involved. | ||||||||

| Placed twice from 3 starts in bumpers and has shown fair form over hurdles, running well fast-tracked into a handicap when sixth of 12 at Market Rasen (20.6f) in February. Lesser effort upped in grade at Newbury last time, but she's a major player in maiden company. NON RUNNER. | ||||||||

FIDENDUM has a lengthy absence to overcome but was going the right way when last seen so could be worth siding with. Crystal Days needs to shrug off a lesser effort at Kelso last month but is a definite player if doing so, with American Empire next best. |
