Cut little ice for Grace Harris but she's gone with some promise on both runs for her new yard, travelling well long way when fifth of 16 in 2m2f Stratford handicap 18 days ago; she's a player off a 2lb lower mark and back down in trip.

2nd Nov 2023 Soft 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Seven-race maiden but best yet when a front-running fifth of ten on her stable/seasonal debut at Worcester (2m, good to soft) last month; only beaten around 4l in that race and each-way claims if she can build on that. |

10st 9lb |
Heavy defeats in her two bumpers and four hurdle races; hinted at ability three starts back but handicap debut in April latest (22-1) was her worst show over hurdles; has since left Grace Harris; no solid claims, so best watched unless there's been a big move for her. |

9 yo Mare
OR: 91
Lightly raced mare who resumed from eight months off with a breakthrough all-the-way victory in 2m4f handicap hurdle at Fakenham a week ago; she failed to build on a promising return last season but is still respected under a 7lb penalty.

Lightly raced since making debut in 2018 but closely involved in three handicaps, including over C&D (good to soft), before a low-key run at Hereford in March; hard to know which way the wind will blow this time. |

A fair winning chaser who got off the mark in this sphere at Plumpton (3m1f) four weeks ago; up 5lb but runner-up has franked the form so she can go well again.

Modest maiden hurdler who has failed to kick on since sent handicapping, a well-held fifth at Warwick (2m3f) 12 days ago; she needs to take a big step forward.

Minor promise in first two completions over hurdles but was 18-1 for her handicap debut at Ludlow in April (2m5f, good to soft) and didn't make sufficient inroads to fancy for this. |

Much improved for Fergal O'Brien this season when landing back-to-back handicaps at Plumpton (2m4f) and Worcester (2m); since changed hands for £7,000 and she's well in the mix for her new yard despite a 4lb rise in the weights.

Well beaten for Sheila Lewis; made a winning start for new connections when coming from the back to win by 4l in 12-runner handicap at Plumpton (2m4f, good) 18 days ago; that was pretty smooth, so she's of major interest despite 5lb rise and the shorter trip. |

1st 11 |
24th Sep 2023 Good To Soft 2m 4f 114y Class 5 |

Lightly raced mare whose struggles for Sheila Lewis included a poor handicap run when hooded; however, Fergal O'Brien is very capable of turning new recruits around and she needs checking in the betting. |

Brought along steadily in three runs over hurdles last term, coming in a never-dangerous sixth in 2m Ludlow novice in March; she may do better now going into handicaps so is no forlorn hope on her return.
