Verdict

THE PLAYER QUEEN looks a promising recruit to hurdling having been acquired for £140,000 following a Cheltenham bumper success for Mel Rowley and should take plenty of beating starting out at a realistic level in this sphere. Miss Milano makes some appeal on paper for a good yard, so is a debutante to note, while recent Hexham bumper scorer Fiadh also merits consideration.
