Winning by a nose in a heavy-ground Lingfield maiden last month was somewhat disappointing for PRESENTING DOY, seeing as she was the favourite at 2-5, but she had made a very promising rules debut three weeks earlier and retains potential. Wrappedinrubies is next on the list.[Chris Wilson]

Irish point winner who was a very promising fourth on rules debut at Warwick (2m3f, good to soft) in January; made heavy weather of justifying short odds in modest Lingfield maiden (2m3f, heavy) last month but remains open to significant improvement if she handles the faster ground here.
Six hurdle wins, the latest from the front at Hexham (2m4f, good) in October; still on a workable mark but has become very inconsistent and needs to bounce back from a poor run last month; swaps usual blinkers for first-time visor.
Looked promising in bumpers in the autumn (including on good ground) and has made the frame on both hurdling starts, more recently when very close second to Presenting Doy at Lingfield (2m3f, heavy) last month; may not be straightforward but she moves into handicaps with potential.
Placed at Ludlow (2m5f, good to soft) in December and ran well for a long way when upped to 3m2f last time (disqualified after rider weighed in light) but has very mixed record this season and remains without a win since 2021; sports first-time cheekpieces; others preferred.
In the frame all four hurdling starts, most recently when fourth of eight in Doncaster handicap (2m5f, good) this month; probably needs to find something extra to open her account here but that's possible.
Came good on handicap debut at Catterick (2m3f, good) in December, staying on well to cause 20-1 surprise; ought to have coped better with the soft ground when only seventh at Bangor last month but may yet have more to offer; sports first-time cheekpieces.
Won Doncaster maiden (2m, good to soft) for Alan King last season but did not build upon that success and was sold for 1,400gns after a very poor Flat run last month; makes stable debut with quite a lot to prove.
