Forecasts

Lutinebella (4/9), Marmalaid (4/1), Fortuitous Favour (4/1), Lewesian Lass (50/1), Den The Diva (200/1)

Verdict

This is likely to boil down to a straight fight between MARMALAID and Lutinebella, unless bumper winner Fortuitous Favour improves markedly for the switch to hurdles following a break. On all known form, Lutinebella should be winning this but Marmalaid is something of an unknown quantity for the Nicky Henderson yard and, at the probable prices, she is the more appealing betting proposition.

  1. MARMALAID
  2. LUTINEBELLA
  3. FORTUITOUS FAVOUR (IRE)
