Verdict

Make My Heart Fly ran well for a long way at Cheltenham last week and is no back number here. The finish may be fought out by the two Willie Mullins trained mares however who both come here with bags of potential. Don't Hesitate's jumping wasn't great on debut so slight preference is for SANCTA SIMONA who won with plenty to spare at Galway.
  1. Sancta Simona
