Victoria Milano
VICTORIA MILANO encouragingly built on her penultimate Uttoxeter third when finding only an unexposed sort too strong on her most recent outing at Bangor 5 weeks ago. She earns the vote to go one place better from what rates an exploitable mark. Top weight Fair Damsel was an encouraging fifth in a stronger race at Wexford 6 weeks ago and she's feared if building on that. In-form mare Parish Star is another who commands respect.

Improver for current yard, winning back-to-back handicaps at Newcastle/Southwell earlier this year. Good placed efforts on 2 of her 3 starts since, going close to adding to her tally at Market Rasen (21f) 4 weeks ago.

Dual 2m/2m5f hurdles winner in 2023/24 for Alastair Ralph. Largely disappointing thereafter but dropped a fair way in the weights as a result and built on her Uttoxeter third when finding only an unexposed sort too strong at Bangor (23f) 5 weeks ago. Very interesting contender.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosBangor-on-dee2m 7f 32yGoodHurdle2/9Uttoxeter2m 3f 207yGoodHurdle3/12Haydock Park2m 3f 203yGood (Good to Soft in places)Chasepu/6Ludlow2m 5f 55ySoftHurdle8/10Haydock Park2m 5f 50yGood to SoftHurdleF/17- 8Forest SpiritJ: James BowenT: Mickey Bowen09753-2Age 511/29/25/1

Fair performer on the Flat who is steadily going the right way over hurdles, backing up her previous best with cheekpieces added when second at Ffos Las (2½m, good to soft) 37 days ago. Does need to confirm her stamina for this 2f longer trip now, though.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosFfos Las2m 4fGood to SoftHurdle2/7Ffos Las2m 4fGood (Good to Soft in places)Hurdle3/7Ffos Las2m 4fGoodHurdle5/6Worcester2m 4fGoodHurdle7/11Worcester2mGood to SoftHurdle9/13- 5Gerrys WishJ: Sean BowenT: Gordon Elliott, Ireland63822-8Age 513/213/26/1

Much more like it when knocking firmly at the door in 3m handicaps at Perth/Galway last summer. Last month's Sligo reappearance has to go down as disappointing with that in mind but possible she'll strip fitter and leading stable's runners always command respect.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosSligo3m 1f 172yGood (Good to Yielding in places)Hurdle8/12Galway3mYielding (Good to Yielding in places)Hurdle2/16Perth2m 7f 207yGood (Good to Soft in places)Hurdle2/7Navan2m 3fYielding (Good to Yielding in places)Hurdle8/16Wexford2m 4f 100yGood (Good to Yielding in places)Hurdle3/14- 6Turkey And HamJ: Mr Dara McGillT: Noel C.

Career best when opening her account in 15-runner handicap at Kilbeggan (2¼m, good) last spring. Shaped as if better for the run after 12 months off when sixth in mares handicap at Tramore in April and feasible to think she will step forward here with cheekpieces now added.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosTramore2m 5fGood to YieldingHurdle6/16Kilbeggan2m 2f 50yGood (Good to Yielding in places)Hurdle1/15Perth2m 4f 35yGoodHurdle6/11Kilbeggan3m 100yYieldingHurdle4/15Uttoxeter2m 7f 70yGood (Good to Soft in places)Hurdle3/11- 1Fair DamselJ: Danny GilliganT: Cian Michael Collins, Ireland30/60-5Age 87/17/113/2

Largely disappointing since landing a Killarney maiden hurdle back in 2024 but did show more than on stable debut without being seen to best effect when fifth in mares' hurdle at Wexford (2½m) 6 weeks ago. Remains lightly raced in handicaps and this less competitive than her latest assignment.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosWexford2m 4fGood to YieldingHurdle5/14Tramore2m 5fGood to YieldingHurdle12/16Clonmel2m 76yHeavyHurdle6/8Navan1m 6fSoftFlat21/23Kilbeggan1m 7f 110yGood (Good to Yielding in places)Hurdle11/14- 9AlvestaJ: Brian HughesT: James Moffatt4446-71Age 510/110/19/1

Belatedly cashed in on a falling mark away from soft ground when getting on top in the dying strides in 13-runner selling handicap here (17f) last month. Joined local yard for 16,000 gns thereafter and whilst she remains fairly treated up 4 lb, she wouldn't be certain to stay this longer trip.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosCartmel2m 1f 46yGoodHurdle1/13Hexham2m 48ySoftHurdle7/9Kelso2m 2f 25yGood (Good to Soft in places)Hurdle6/10Fakenham2m 3ySoftHurdle4/6Southwell1m 3f 23yStandardFlat8/11- 3Belles BenefitJ: Harry BannisterT: Ben Case331568-Age 1010/112/111/1

Scored at Stratford in September but unable to replicate that in 3 starts thereafter last year, eighth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Huntingdon (25f) in November. Has gone well fresh previously though, so one to note if market speaks in her favour from reduced mark.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosHuntingdon3m 1f 10yGoodHurdle8/16Fontwell Park2m 5f 164yGood to SoftHurdle6/8Warwick3m 2fGood (Good to Firm in Places)Hurdle5/7Stratford-on-avon2m 6f 7yGood (Good to Firm in places)Hurdle1/4Cartmel3m 1f 83yGoodHurdle3/9- 4Blackwater LillyJ: Jack QuinlanT: Neil King1432-44Age 612/112/114/1

On a long losing run and she failed to build on Newton Abbot fourth for her new yard when a tailed-off last of 4 in handicap hurdle at Fakenham (2m) 26 days ago. Usual cheekpieces quickly go back on, but she's something to prove up in trip.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosFakenham2m 3yGood (Good to Firm in places)Hurdle4/4Newton Abbot2m 2f 110yGoodHurdle4/7Leicester1m 2fGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat11/14Sedgefield2m 178yGoodHurdle2/5Sedgefield2m 178yGood (Good to Soft in places)Hurdle3/7- 10Masonbrook MeadowJ: Benjamin MaceyT: Seamus Mullins544P-27Age 516/116/114/1

Finally off the mark in first-time cheekpieces at Exeter (16.7f) in October and posted best effort since over longest trip she's faced when second at Fakenham (23f) in May. However, bounce back called for having disappointed at Stratford since.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosStratford-on-avon2m 6f 7yGood to Firm (Good in places)Hurdle7/10Fakenham2m 7f 95yGoodHurdle2/6Newton Abbot2m 5f 122yGood (Good to Soft in places)Hurdlepu/9Hereford2m 3f 147yGood to SoftHurdle4/13Wincanton2m 3f 179yGoodHurdle4/14
