Forecasts

Lucca Lady (13/8), Vivant (3/1), Kentford Heiress (5/1), Poppy Kay (5/1), Grageelagh Girl (13/2)

Verdict

Poppy Kay stands out on her hurdles form but her chase debut in this race 12 months ago was unconvincing. Her Doncaster success in March when 1/16 in a match means little. LUCCA LADY slammed last year's winner of this contest when bolting up on her chase debut over C&D. That was a big step up on previous form and she may have found her lack of experience against her when taking on better horses last time. Kentford Heiress was impressive in a valuable handicap at Haydock but she exploited a low mark that day and this will be harder. Vivant and Grageelagh Girl have a bit to find unless improving for the switch to fences.
  1. Lucca Lady
