VILLAINESS made an encouraging start to her hurdle career when second at Lingfield last month and can go one better now. Sweet Fantasy would be a possible big threat if turning out, while By The Grace showed plenty of promise in bumpers and could easily leave her heavy-ground hurdle debut behind back on a sounder surface.
