Broomfield Aderra (M)
Winning pointer who readily opened her account in this sphere in mares' maiden at Lingfield (19.5f) in November. Built on that switched to handicap company when third of 7 at Aintree (2m4f) on Boxing Day and she's very much one to consider…

Coolanna (M)
[T]
Runner-up both starts in Irish points before landing 2m6f novice at Uttoxeter on her hurdling bow in December. Looked a strong staying type when following up in 2m5f Wincanton novice following month so she's a big player now upped to 3m,

Park Princess (M)
[T]
Has made up into a fairly useful hurdler this winter, scoring at Ludlow in November and again at Fontwell (2m2f) in January. Not at her best when seventh of 9 in Warwick Grade 2 last time but she's the sort to bounce back stepping up in tr…
