Forecasts

Verdict

TOUCHY FEELY has an eye-catching pedigree with bumpers in mind and her top handler sends some of his best to this track on debut, so she takes marginal preference over Notnowlinda, who sets the standard after finishing third in a Cheltenham listed event on Rules debut. Fancy Your Chances is also considered.

  1. TOUCHY FEELY
