1	Jubilee Alpha Bay J:Harry Cobden T:Paul Nicholls	J:Harry Cobden T:Paul Nicholls	161	—	2-3118	127	135	112	35d	—	—	+8	28.9	0.83/1	10/3 23%
Ran below expectations here in March but now back at Listed level (penalised)
8	Sainte Tartare Bay J:Danny Mullins T:W P Mullins	J:Danny Mullins T:W P Mullins	156	h	231	130	139	113	79d	—	—	+21	40.3	0.88/1	7/2 22%
Made all in a Limerick maiden and she's dangerously unexposed for her top yard
3	Bluey Bay J:Ben Jones T:Emma Lavelle	J:Ben Jones T:Emma Lavelle	156	—	-4121P	124	137	124	35d	—	—	+20	33.1	1.38/1	11/2 15%
She'll stay the trip okay but balance of form suggests she'll come up short
5	La Pinsonniere Bay J:Nico de Boinville T:Nicky Henderson	J:Nico de Boinville T:Nicky Henderson	156	p	2-2122	123	133	117	26d	—	—	+12	25.8	1.38/1	11/2 15%
Consistent since arriving from France but has only managed to win a Huntingdon maiden
11	The Great Nudie b/br J:Sean Flanagan T:Colin Bowe	J:Sean Flanagan T:Colin Bowe	156	—	415126	130	138	113	35d	—	—	+22	33.8	1.50/1	6/1 14%
Has form claims but faded rather tamely last time at Limerick, albeit in a Grade 3
7	Miss Cynthia Bay J:Tom Cannon T:Lucy Wadham	J:Tom Cannon T:Lucy Wadham	156	v	2212	115	126	92	47d	—	—	+27	34.4	3.00/1	12/1 8%
Useful on the Flat and consistent over hurdles, but these terms are very tough
10	Speculatrix Bay J:Danny Gilligan T:Gordon Elliott	J:Danny Gilligan T:Gordon Elliott	156	—	0F69F1	127	137	-	31d	—	—	+25	29.1	4.50/1	18/1 5%
Could have turned a corner after winning a Wexford maiden and not ruled out
9	Settle Down Jill Bay J:Harry Skelton T:Dan Skelton	J:Harry Skelton T:Dan Skelton	156	—	1-472	-	-	-	39d	—	—	+4	8.2	6.25/1	25/1 4%
Latest piece of bumper form has been franked but this is a tough start over hurdles
4	Kitty Foyle Bay J:Harry Reed T:Daisy Hitchins	J:Harry Reed T:Daisy Hitchins	156	—	12530	119	132	110	35d	—	—	+21	23.4	8.25/1	33/1 3%
Jubilee Alpha has her number on previous clashes and up against it at these weights
2	Anariza Bay J:Mr Jack Andrews T:T Ellis	J:Mr Jack Andrews T:T Ellis	156	—	1-432	110	122	103	33d	—	—	+21	22.5	20.00/1	80/1 1%
Has run respectably in two novice hurdles for mares but couldn't win either

Her fifth at the Festival entitles her to every chance and this longer trip will suit
