Verdict

MULBERRY HILL shaped with plenty of encouragement after a change of yards when runner-up in a 2m course novice 22 days ago and, with this step up in trip sure to suit, she's a confident selection to go one better. Present Storm rates the main threat ahead of Carole’s Tzarina, who showed some promise in bumpers earlier in the year and will find this sort of test more suitable now hurdling.
