Verdict

FIVEAFTERFOUR has achieved just modest form over hurdles to date following her point win, but the step up in trip is in her favour and she's worth a chance to make a successful start in handicaps. Last-time-out winner Joie de Vivre remains well treated on old form and Spice Diva is also worthy of consideration.
