Favorite

From a family her yard has done well with and she showed promise when second of five on Stratford debut (soft) in October; finished last of six at Ascot (1m7f, good) the following month but that was a good race and she ran well to a point; looks interesting back in calmer waters after a break and she's respected.

The Flaming Galah

Weakened quickly and he failed to beat a rival in two point bumpers (soft/good) towards end of last year; hood is now added and he needs a transformation on rules debut.

2
Colour Clash

1,000euros 3yo; first foal; dam bumper winner, closely related to winners Ballygrooby Bertie (2m3f hurdle) and Glassilaun (point), out of Listed-placed 1m winning half-sister to smart bumper and 2m3f-3m hurdle/chase winner Vodka Bleu; makes some appeal on paper and needs checking in market on debut.

Robin Blue Breast

80-1 and she finished a well-held fifth of eight on Chepstow debut (2m, good) last month; yard also represented by newcomer Colour Clash.

Jockey: Bryan CarverTrainer: Joe Ponting
5
Bob Bishop

His dam is out of a sister to stable's former star Cue Card; ran green on C&D debut (good; 12-1) last month but he made some good late headway to finish a 7l third of eight; that was a promising effort behind a 1-2 shot and he should know much more this time; big player.
