Verdict

A chance is taken on SILKEN MOONLIGHT, who was always likely to struggle back over hurdles following a lengthy absence at Southwell in November and, with that run under her belt, better can be expected now that she returns to this sphere and a stiffer track.The in-form Rocco Storm is an obvious threat having lost little caste in defeat when second in his hat-trick bid at Sedgefield last time, while Broomfields Kan could have a part to play if he puts his best foot forward.

  1. SILKEN MOONLIGHT
