Lady Dapple Rose (M)
Showed ability in 2 bumpers. Translated that to hurdling when second in small-field Leicester maiden (2m) in November but hasn't come close to repeating that form in 3 starts since (beaten 20 lengths when third latest). Handicap debut.

Kottayam (M)
Placed twice in maiden hurdles for Patrick Neville last summer but pulled up in 2 handicaps for Dylan Cunha in the autumn. Returns from a 6-month break (has had a breathing operation) under the care of another new trainer.

After Many Days (M)
FAV
[P]
Long-standing maiden but has posted good runner-up efforts in handicap hurdles around 2½m on 4 of her last 5 starts. Another prominent showing is likely for a stable no stranger to success in this race.

Slack Alice (M)
[V]
Modest maiden on the Flat and over hurdles. Well beaten in her first handicap over hurdles 3 weeks ago and needs the refitting of a visor she's worn on the Flat to have a positive effect.

Jlow (M)
[T]
Eighteen-race maiden. Below form in 2 comeback outings this spring (beaten just under 25 lengths into fourth last time) and it's likely the wait for a first win will go on.

Klervia (M)
[P]
Placed in novice hurdles around 2m on good ground last spring. Best effort in handicaps since when fourth of 13 over 21.5f at Exeter in first-time cheekpieces (retained) 15 days ago. That gives her something to build on.

La Cantate (M)
Just minor promise in 4 starts for Clive Boultbee-Brooks last season and no significant impact in 2 handicap hurdles for Robbie Llewellyn last summer. Best watched back from 9 months off unless the betting hints otherwise.

Imperial Pride (M)
[TP]
Multiple point winner in 2024 and belatedly opened Rules account when landing a 3m Huntingdon handicap chase in first-time cheekpieces in March. Backed that up when second over 3¼m at Plumpton a fortnight later. Shorter trip back hurdling …

Wishful Wings (M)
[P1]
Runner-up in an Irish point but only poor form under Rules, merely plugging on for a never-dangerous fourth over 3m at Warwick on her completed start in handicap chases in recent months. Not an obvious one back hurdling but the stable did …

Shes All Pride (M)
Second in her sole Irish point. Poor form over hurdles but did make more of an impact than previously when third of 9 on 2¾m Stratford handicap debut 25 days ago.

Jessie's Giant (M)
Little promise in bumpers/hurdles around 2m but more realistic chance now handicapping over a trip which is bred to suit. Worth a look in the betting.
