Verdict

A low-mileage winner on the Flat, BELLATRIXSA has progressed into a useful mare over hurdles, adding a fourth win in that discipline to her tally at Hereford in February. A good second at Chepstow in March, she's very interesting from this mark back on the level for the trainer/jockey combination that landed this with Green Book 12 months ago. Auriferous and Call My Bluff rate next best, ahead of Haveyoumissedme.
