Horse silk
80/1
Solid start when runner-up at Wetherby in November and didn't need to improve on that form when going one better at Newcastle in January. Will need to advance her form considerably to play a prominent role here, though.

Jack Hobbs mare from a good family who looked a useful prospect when winning a Warwick bumper on debut (heavy) in February. Respected for last year's winning yard.

Blue Bresil mare who struck on her bumper debut at Newcastle (16.2f, AW) in January. That was an ordinary race but she did it in the style of one who can go on to better things. Tongue tie added now.

Only midfield on Wincanton debut in January but much sharper when winning a 12-runner event at Hereford 7 weeks later. A fair bit more improvement will be required if she's to follow up here.

Made it 3-4 in bumpers when seeing off 9 rivals in a Sandown listed race (good to soft) last month. This is harder but she should be in the mix again for a yard no stranger to success in this.

Sister to useful hurdler/smart chase winner One For Rosie and made a successful start to her career at Carlisle in November. Beaten 3¾ lengths into fourth by Kingston Queen in Market Rasen listed event since but was better than the result having been forced wide on the home bend.

33/1
Easy to back but barely came off the bridle when making a winning start in a Ffos Las bumper in November. Testing conditions perhaps to blame for low-key display next time and duly got back on track when narrowly denied by reopposing stablemate Strong Run at Warwick (soft) in February.

9/2
Fetched £130,000 after winning her only start in points and has looked a good prospect when going 2-2 in bumpers, drawing clear late to score by 3 lengths at Ascot (good) latterly. Likely there's more to come and on the shortlist.

Made a winning debut over C&D (good to soft) in October. Beaten favourite for Huntingdon listed event on more testing ground in December but given time since and could bounce back faced with a sounder surface.

80/1, promising first effort when giving a Willie Mullins odds-on shot a fright at Thurles (good) in December. That was for Denis Leahy and now under the care of Jamie Snowden.

Frontiersman mare who made a successful start to her career in a 7-runner Doncaster bumper 3 weeks ago but the form she achieved on that occasion is well short of the required standard here.

Second on sole start between the flags and fair form when placed on all three starts in this sphere, third of 13 to Strong Run and Highland Haven at Warwick on latest occasion. Likely vulnerable here.

Second bumper success when bagging a Cheltenham listed event under Billy Lee in November. Seemingly kept fresh for this since. Should go well for a good Flat stable.

Forecasts

Seo Linn (15/8), Charisma Cat (7/2), Jackie Hobbs (9/2), Strong Run (11/1), Kapability (12/1), Kingston Queen (14/1), Getawhisky (16/1), Betty's Daisy (20/1), La Conquiere (22/1), Blue Betty (25/1), St Irene (28/1), Highland Haven (33/1), Queen Kate (50/1), Oldschool Outlaw (50/1), La Zoubida (66/1), St Jessica (80/1), Amelia's Star (80/1), Roses All The Way (80/1), Celestron Star (100/1), Slack Alice (125/1)

Verdict

It looks as if Paddy Twomey has saved SEO LINN for this since her comfortable Cheltenham listed success in November and this daughter of Order of St George can strike again under Billy Lee. The unbeaten Jackie Hobbs heads the many dangers along with Betty's Daisy, for last year's winning stable, and October's C&D scorer Kapability.
