Verdict

QUEENIE ST CLAIR is potentially very well treated from a mark of 60 back in this sphere given her exploits over hurdles for Nick Schofield last winter and she could well be worthy of siding with having gone well fresh previously. Carthusian proved yet another good advert for the Jennie Candlish team when making a successful yard debut at Chester 8 days ago and rates next best. No Ordinary Joe is one to monitor on handicap debut in this sphere from what could prove a lenient opening mark, too.

4	Fair form on Flat in Ireland and much improved following yard switch over hurdles last season, winning 3 times, latterly at Kelso (2m) in March. Struggled up in grade on final start but returns to this sphere from what could prove a very lenient mark given hurdle exploits.

1	Didn't manage to win for Jessica Harrington in Ireland but put that right on first start for new yard when landing 10-runner handicap at Chester (14.4f, heavy, 9/1) 8 days ago, well on top finish. Clearly handles deep ground well and big shout again on back of a 4 lb rise. 2nd Pick 1 Carthusian (Ire) Jockey: Liam Wright Trainer: Jennie Candlish J: Liam Wright T: Jennie Candlish	92	-	-	-	35%	15/8

3	A fairly useful but inconsistent hurdler nowadays who hasn't gone without promise in a trio of novice events at up to 11f for new yard in recent weeks. Tongue strap quickly reapplied for handicap debut off what could well prove a lenient opening mark. One to monitor in the betting for clues. 3rd Pick 3 No Ordinary Joe (Ire) Jockey: Finley Marsh Trainer: Robert Stephens J: Finley Marsh T: Robert Stephens	87	-	-	-	16%	11/2
