Lamanver Odyssey was progressive last season before flopping at Newbury on her final start, but she returned with a win at Wincanton despite not always jumping fluently. She's up 7lb now but may improve again. Lady Karina had her measure at Hereford in January (narrowly) and won well at Warwick recently on her sole start since. Venetia Williams' charge likes testing ground and should also be an improver here. MOMELLA however may be answer, having run well here against the boys last time when second behind On The Blind Side. That rival has since scored impressively off a mark of 145, ensuring the form looks strong. With Dan Skelton's team flying (31% previous fortnight), she can make it three from four over timber now back against her own sex.
