It could be worth chancing UFOURIA, who travelled well for a long way on her debut for Alastair Ralph at Hereford last month and is entitled to build on that. Ip Up and Tour Ovalie are also likely to be involved at the business end.

Verdict
Improved when opening her account in juvenile hurdle at Hereford (16.2f) in April 2024 and ran to similar level when solid second on return/handicap debut at Huntingdon this time last year. Disappointed at Taunton the following month but is worth monitoring in market on first outing since here.
