3-time winner over hurdles for B. F. Brookhouse and ran another good race when second in 10-runner handicap at Uttoxeter (2½m) when last seen in September. Since changed hands for £21,000 and is one to watch closely in the betting having f…

Masked Dance (M)
Resumed winning ways at Ludlow in December and good efforts when runner-up there next 2 outings. Far from disgraced in a better-quality handicap at Haydock on most recent outing and has a good record in this race (won it from My Chiquita i…

Magical Maggie (M)
Likeable type who capitalised on a career-low mark in bringing up a fourth course win at Ludlow in February (21.2f), staying on well having helped force the pace with Masked Dance. Shaped as if still in good form without convincing with he…

Mermaids Cave (M)
[P]
Bounced back to her best to make it 3 wins from as many starts at Huntingdon in 5-runner handicap (2½m, good to soft) last week. Much respected under a 7-lb penalty.

Atlantic City (M)
FAV
Capitalised on a handy opening mark when winning 7-runner handicap hurdle at Perth (good to soft) 23 days ago, doing well having conceded first run. Still unexposed for current yard and looks sure to go well again. Engaged 3.43 Perth Thurs…

Roaring Home (M)
Made her second start at 3m a winning one in 4-runner handicap hurdle at Chepstow (3m, good to firm, 10/3) 21 days ago, readily. Drops back in trip but should remain competitive from only 4 lb higher in the weights.

I C U In My Dreams (M)
Irish point winner who made the frame both starts in bumpers and stepped forward from her hurdling debut effort when making all in 2½m Newcastle maiden in March. However, ran poorly switched to a handicap at Bangor last time.

Golden Glance (M)
[PT]
Largely respectable efforts in handicaps during 2023/24 campaign but has gone with little promise all 3 starts since returning from 21 months off. Has had a breathing operation since latest outing.
