Form: 432

OR: 110

W: 11st 2lb

Age: 5 yo Filly

Point-to-point bumper winner; has run respectably in two novice hurdles for mares but couldn't win either and this is much harder.

Form: -4121P

OR: 124

W: 11st 2lb

Age: 6 yo Mare

A front-runner who has won two minor races but was perhaps flattered to finish within 2l of Jubilee Alpha at Windsor in January and she was pulled up in a Grade 2 here at the Festival; she'll stay okay but may come up short.

Form: 12530

OR: 119

W: 11st 2lb

Age: 5 yo Filly

Jubilee Alpha has her number on previous clashes, including here in March when the Nicholls mare was below her best; up against it at these weights.

Form: 2-2122

OR: 123

W: 11st 2lb

Age: 5 yo Filly

Consistent since arriving from France but has only managed to win a Huntingdon maiden and her second in a Newbury handicap last time (2m4f, good; first-time cheekpieces) is no shining advert for her prospects here, with the winner of that race previously beaten by Jubilee Alpha and Bluey.

Form: 2212 D

OR: 115

W: 11st 2lb

Age: 5 yo Filly

Consistent and smart on the Flat at up to 2m and was recruited for 100,000gns; not yet out of the first two over hurdles, last time keeping on for second in a Listed race over 3m at Doncaster; these terms are very tough, however.

Form: 231

OR: 130

W: 11st 2lb

Age: 7 yo Mare

Hooded throughout; second to The Great Nudie in November when making her debut; made all for a comfortable maiden success at Limerick (2m, heavy; tongue-tie added but now absent) and runs here in preference to a Grade 1 engagement this weekend at Fairyhouse; dangerously unexposed for her top yard.

Form: 472

OR: —

W: 11st 2lb

Age: 5 yo Filly

Irish point winner (on heavy) who joined new connections for £120,000; beaten in three bumpers and had the run of things up front when second at Warwick (good), though that form was franked with the winner finishing second in a Grade 2 at Aintree; this is no easy starter over hurdles, however.

Form: 0F69F1

OR: 127

W: 11st 2lb

Age: 6 yo Filly

Finished behind Jubilee Alpha and Metkayina in the mares' bumper at last season's Grand National meeting; made a rocky start over hurdles (fell twice) but could have turned a corner after winning a Wexford maiden (2m, good to yielding) that should have done her confidence some good; bred for this far and not ruled out.

Form: 415126 D

OR: 130

W: 11st 2lb

Age: 5 yo Filly

Won a point on good ground but heavy has been in the description for both her hurdle wins (2m5f/2m3f); couldn't live with Supreme runner-up William Munny two runs back but a greater concern would be her rather tame finish at Limerick, albeit in a Grade 3; rain would be welcomed.
