Service Minimum (M)
FAV
Winner of novice events over 2m and 2½m last summer and, though yet to really threaten in handicap company, she left the impression that she should've finished closer at Market Rasen last time. This represents a drop in grade and merits re…

Roaring Home (M)
Yet to add to Exeter maiden hurdle success back in October 2024 but has performed well all 3 completed starts this season, most recently finishing fifth in a big-field Haydock handicap (21f, good to soft) in January following a second brea…

Eastern Shores (M)
[HT]
£70,000 purchase after winning an Irish point in 2024 and arguably produced her best effort yet under Rules when finding just one too good at Huntingdon (2m, heavy) last time. 2 lb lower here and she may well build on that now faced with a…

Morning Air (M)
[P1]
Flat winner in France and made a successful hurdle debut in the mud in weak contest at Leicester in December 2024. Has failed to fire since but perhaps the addition of cheekpieces will prove to be the catalyst for a step back in the right …

Voodoo Angel (M)
[P]
Yet to score but has finished in the money 6 times from 9 starts in this sphere, including when third of 8 off 3 higher mark at Wetherby (2m, soft) last time. Not sure that this step back up in trip is what she wants, though.

Nevershedatear (M)

Winning pointer who didn't cut much ice in 3 qualifying runs and suffered a tack issue on recent handicap bow at Sedgefield (rider was attempting to pull her up after the fifth flight, at which point he was unseated). Equipped with first-t…
