Verdict

SPARKLING WATER showed promise in a pair of bumpers for Ralph Beckett last season and is fancied to build on those efforts now starting out for the powerful Dan Skelton yard. Lucy Glitters offered plenty to work on when finding only one too good on her Worcester debut last month and is firmly in the picture, along with the penalised Thetype Istitle.

12	Jack Hobbs filly. Dam (h116), bumper/17f-2¾m hurdle winner, half-sister to bumper winner/fairly useful hurdler (stayed 25f) Smart Mover. Belied unflattering odds on her debut (fitted with a hood) when second of 14 in 2m bumper at Worcester last month. That gives her leading form claims. 2nd Pick 12 Lucy Glitters Jockey: Beau Morgan Trainer: Tom George J: Beau Morgan T: Tom George	98	-	-	-	19%	9/2

1	Feel Like Dancing filly. Made frame on 2 of 3 starts in Irish points and put that experience to good use to make a winning Rules debut in 7-runner bumper at Stratford (2m) at the end of last month, dictating but scoring with a bit in hand. Should be competitive under a penalty. 3rd Pick 1 Thetype Istitle (Ire) Jockey: Rian Corcoran Trainer: David Pipe J: Rian Corcoran T: David Pipe	96	-	-	-	19%	9/2
