Biglesisback (M)
Well-related mare who has been runner-up 3 times over hurdles (2 novice, 1 handicap) this winter. Pulled up at Ayr last time but her stable's good form in recent weeks provides hope that she can shrug that off now.

Girl Friday (M)
£45,000 purchase after winning sole start in Irish points (Oct 2025). Doesn't have too high a standard to aim at on hurdle debut so market support would be interesting.

I Heard A Rumour (M)
Related to winners but no more than hinted at ability in 2 outings at Chepstow last month. Sallyville Lady is the Skelton first string unless the betting suggests otherwise.

Joan's Choice (M)
[H]
Just failed to get up in a course bumper in November and went one better at Plumpton (good to soft) just before Christmas. Should be up to making her presence felt in a race like this now hurdling.

Khaleesi Queen (M)
First form when 22 lengths fifth of 12 in 2½m Newcastle novice hurdle 14 days ago. More will be needed to go close here and probably more one for staying handicaps later on.

Royal Maggs (M)

Dual point winner but hasn't offered much in a bumper and 2 hurdles this winter.

Sallyville Lady (M)
FAV
Irish point winner who has shown fair form when placed on all 3 outings over hurdles. Reported to have bled from the nose when third of 10 in 21f Ludlow handicap last time but still the one to beat for a top stable with an excellent Wether…
