Hopeless Dancer (G)
FAV
Quietly progressive when places all 3 starts in bumpers this autumn and almost ran to a fair level despite failing to beat a rival in a 3-runner introductory hurdle here last month. Drop back in trip doesn't look obviously suitable but opp…

Miracles Do Happen (M)
[H]
Pulled up sole start in points but made more of an impact in this sphere, stepping on her Down Royal debut third in May when second of 4 on stable debut here (15.7f) in October. Possibly amiss at Wincanton last time but has hinted at a qui…

Estate Planning (G)
Placed a couple of times last sason despite showing temperament (refused to race once). Poor efforts in handicaps so far this year, though the pick of his form would give him a good chance.

No Guarantee (G)
[TV]
Long-standing maiden but was in the frame 5 of his 6 starts for previous trainer Max Comley. No promise for current connections, however.

Western Ginny (F)
Very green on debut when jumping badly right at the first and unseating at Wincanton last month and was pulled up having tried to refuse again at Windsor 10 days ago. Can't be fancied.

Barbie Girlz (M)
[T]
Very limited in bumpers/over hurdles, running as well as she ever has when sixth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Ffos Las (20f, soft) 24 days ago. Might be able to make the placings in such a thin race.
