After The Ball (M)
Maiden pointer. Well-held fourth of 7 in 2m novice hurdle at Bangor on her debut 19 days ago, needing stiffer test. May do better for her in-form yard.

Bonnet's Secret (M)
22/1, last of 13 in bumper at Warwick 150 days ago. Much more is needed on her hurdles debut.

Hornica (M)
FAV
[H]
Capable of fairly useful form but she went freely (also blundered 3 out and lost shoe) when a below-par third of 12 in 2m novice hurdle at Ludlow 60 days ago. Back from a break now and she's the clear form pick.

Beau Morgan | B Pauling | 6 | 71.7 kg |

| 2nd | 4 | — |
Lady Kara (M)
[HT1]
Fair form shown in bumpers and also in this sphere, not disgraced when fourth of 8 in 2m novice hurdle at Windsor in November. Tongue tied after a break.

Luke Scott | Dr R Newland & J Insole | 5 | 71.7 kg |

Liasse D'argent (M)
125/1, never-dangerous fifth of 7 in 2m novice hurdle at Hereford on her debut 167 days ago. Lots more is required.

Benjamin Macey | T R Gretton | 6 | 71.7 kg |

| 11th | 6 | — |
Lilycala (M)
[T1]
Scalo mare. Dam, showed little in bumpers/over hurdles, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser (stayed 3m) Yalltari. Wears tongue strap for her first run.

Aidan Weaver | T R Gretton | 5 | 71.7 kg |

Merely A Detail (M)
[T]
Fair bumper scorer who has shown similar form when in the frame all 4 runs over hurdles, fourth of 6 on her handicap debut at Fakenham in December, hanging right home turn. Place prospects.

Danny McMenamin | T Bulgin | 5 | 71.7 kg |

| 9th | 8 | — |
Miss Denver (M)
First form shown at the third attempt when fourth of 7 in 2m novice hurdle at Chepstow 24 days ago. Needs to build on it now.

| 12th | 9 | — |
Pink Walls (M)
Poor maiden handicapper on the Flat for Lisa Williamson in 2023. Behind when saddle slipped after an error at the fifth and pulled up on her hurdling bow at Haydock 15 days ago.

Lewis Stones | M Mullineaux | 6 | 71.7 kg |

| 7th | 10 | — |
Willow Edge (M)
[H1]
Jack Hobbs mare. Dam, 2m hurdle/chase winner, is a half-sister to fair hurdle winner/useful chaser (stayed 3m) Stoney's Treasure and fairly useful hurdler (stays 2¾m) Real Stone. Hood on for debut and the market can guide.

Harry Bannister | R T Phillips | 7 | 71.7 kg |

| 5th | 11 | — |
Yeld To Call (M)
[T]
Very good second in 2m Taunton novice in February. Pulled up in 2m handicap at Kelso in first-time tongue tie 29 days ago, but did too much too soon there and no surprise to see her get back on track.
