Verdict

Although she was 11 times the price at Cheltenham INDEFATIGABLE finished well ahead of Posh Trish and with the same weight terms here there is no obvious reason to suggest a reversal so Paul Webber's progressive mare gets the nod to confirm the form. Posh Trish would be feared more if there was the threat of an easy lead having made all three times but both Liberty Bella and Our Dot's Baby generally race prominent too so that seems unlikely. The Cull Bank is in the 'could be anything category' after two easy wins and she doesn't come here on the back of a hard race like the top two do.
  1. Indefatigable
  2. Posh Trish
  3. The Cull Bank
