Verdict

C&D winner Rubytwo enters this contest with some excellent form to her name having split two in-form and subsequent winners at Wetherby last time but she now has to cope with a shorter trip. Highway Companion another likely type also has to handle a drop in trip and that does leave a doubt hanging over the well-fancied pair. It will be interesting to see what the market makes of Paper Promise on her return to action while Lostock Hall is another returning from an absence who will be of interest. FOLLOW YOUR FIRE hasn’t caused any flames so far but he could spark into life here off the back of couple of quiet but eye-catching hurdles runs with Blooriedorcom also one to note in the market.
  1. Follow Your Fire
  2. Rubytwo
  3. Highway Companion
