Verdict

A case can be made for most of these but it's still hard to side against COCO MADEMOISELLE who looks to start life in handicaps on a very good mark and can go one better than her promising chasing debut Worcester second. Realisation also has better days ahead of her and heads the list of dangers, with Irish-raider Theonewedreamof, Similar Story, So Said I and Shakeyatailfeather in the picture too.

Verdict
Winning Irish pointer who also scored twice over hurdles last term. Returned with a promising head second of 5 in 23f Worcester novice on debut over fences so she rates a big player off a lenient opening mark.

Verdict
A fairly useful Flat/hurdles winner who was quick to get off the mark in this sphere at Tipperary in July. Only ninth reverted to hurdles at Galway following month but no surprise to see her get back on track here for last year's winning yard.

Verdict
A fair winning 2m4f hurdler who has made a promising chasing start on the back of wind surgery, just failing after a final-fence mistake in 2m4f Lingfield handicap last month. Can go well again despite a 4 lb weights rise.

Verdict
A C&D winner last season and she arrives in good nick, second of 4 at Carlisle (2m4f) last month. This likeable mare needs considering.

Verdict
Completed a hat-trick at Ludlow (20f) in May but off 4 months before beating only one in 2m4f Kempton handicap chase last month. Should take a step foward now. Possibilities.

Verdict
Landed Ludlow handicap chase in a first-time visor in February. Looked rusty after 6 months off when a well-held fourth of six at Market Rasen on her return. Can take a step forward with cheekpieces now back on.

Reliable mare who resumed winning ways in 7-runner handicap chase at Warwick (20f, soft) 23 days ago by 5 lengths from So Said I. Up 6 lb but she's in the mix once more.

Verdict
Useful hurdler/chaser in France, successful 4 times in each sphere at up to around 2½m. Changed hands for €80,000 in November but was pulled up on debut for new connections at Huntingdon in March. No surprise to see her bounce back here with yard among the winners though.

Verdict
Most likeable hurdler who made it 2-3 in this sphere in a match at Newcastle (2m4f) 29 days ago. This demands much more but she's still one to consider.

Verdict
Easy winner of an Irish point and she made a winning chasing debut at Kelso in October. Backed it up with a very good second of 8 at Carlisle (2m4f) following month so must enter calculations.

Scored over hurdles at Newton Abbot in September and made an encouraging start over fences when fourth at Doncaster (2m3f) two weeks ago. She's very much one to consider with better to come.
