JUST CALL ME LUCY hasn't yet come close to her bumper form over hurdles but she'll know more this time and she really should be a big factor at this level. Bellas Bridge and Parisian Fashion are also likely improvers so are feared most.

Verdict
Successful sole outing in Irish points and built on encouraging Rules debut when landing a 9-runner event at Ludlow in January. Sound fifth in listed company 2 months later but just modest form on hurdles debut fitted with a tongue tie at Southwell in October. Since had a wind op and can improve.

Verdict
Related to a point winner and bolted up on second bumper start at Carlisle (17f, soft) a year ago. Fared as well as could be expected when mid-field in Grade 2 company at Aintree but sent off odds-on, she failed to deliver on last month's hurdles bow. Showed more over 2m here last time.

Pether's Moon mare. Dam (h142) bumper/2m-21f hurdle winner. Stuck to her task pretty well in a brace of bumpers and step up in trip should suit now hurdling.

Verdict
Showed a bit when mid-field in a mares' bumper at Newbury a year and also displayed promise when fourth on hurdles debut at Market Rasen. That puts her in the mix.

Verdict
Bit of promise when making the frame in a Catterick bumper on debut and stepped forward from that effort when winning at Sedgefield (16.8f, heavy) in March. Could never land a blow on hurdles debut over 2m but this trip more suitable.

Half-sister to bumper winner/fair 23f hurdle winner Olivers Travels. Signs of ability in bumpers but sent off a huge price and showed very little on last month's hurdles debut over 2m at this track.
