2-2 in bumpers, 3-3 over hurdles including a Grade 3; held in highest regard by top team
3	Jade De Grugy Bay J:Paul Townend T:W P Mullins	J:Paul Townend T:W P Mullins	161	—	1-11	141	150	121	47d	—	—	+10	38.6	0.44/1	7/4 36%
Easy winner of both her races for Team Mullins; slick jumper who could be anything
6	Golden Ace Bay J:Lorcan Williams T:Jeremy Scott	J:Lorcan Williams T:Jeremy Scott	156	—	152-11	124	142	112	37d	—	—	+14	20.4	2.50/1	10/1 9%
9l to find with Dysart Enos on bumper form but has looked good in winning twice at Taunton
1	Birdie Or Bust Bay J:Rachael Blackmore T:Henry De Bromhead	J:Rachael Blackmore T:Henry De Bromhead	161	—	2-1351	130	132	114	88d	—	—	+19	25.1	3.00/1	12/1 8%
On form she'll be placed at best unless she can unearth something from somewhere
8	Majestic Force Bay J:Darragh O'Keeffe T:Henry De Bromhead	J:Darragh O'Keeffe T:Henry De Bromhead	156	—	11	-	127	-	22d	—	—	+15	17.7	7.00/1	28/1 3%
Won her maiden over 2m4f; looks very vulnerable dropping in trip at this level
9	Mollys Mango Bay J:Paul O'Brien T:Harry Derham	J:Paul O'Brien T:Harry Derham	156	t	36-1P1	-	132	117	73d	—	—	-1	0.5	10.00/1	40/1 2%
Good mare for Gordon Elliott before changing hands at the sales; might be outclassed
10	Titanium Moon Grey J:Brian Hughes T:Donald McCain	J:Brian Hughes T:Donald McCain	156	—	211113	127	139	108	39d	—	—	+38	39.6	16.50/1	66/1 1%
Four-time winner but nothing in her profile to suggest she can match the best of these
11	Victoria Milano Bay J:Jack Tudor T:Alastair Ralph	J:Jack Tudor T:Alastair Ralph	156	—	4-121	119	127	119	28d	—	—	+17	17.4	31.25/1	125/1 1%
Talented mare with a future but she's making up the numbers at this level
