MUDDY MOOY found only a well-touted newcomer too good when bidding to make it 2-2 back from 11 months off at Southwell in December, form which the winner did no harm when going close at Kempton next time She gets the nod ahead of the RogerVarian-trained Sovereign Sea, who hasn’t done anything wrong in his two starts so far and looks a big threat, despite conceding weight all round Nahy looks held by the selection but he has a good chance of picking up minor place money

The vote goes to KITTY FOYLE, who landed a Goodwood handicap on her latest appearance on the Flat and is appealing on the back of a highly creditable effort in a mares’ listed novice hurdle at Taunton last month. Swinging London is pretty consistent and is just about second choice ahead of Path To Dubai.

Great British Bonus (GBB) incentivises and rewards with breeding, buying and racing of British-bred fillies by paying out bonuses of up to £100,000 per filly. And now with GBBPlus to further incentivise staying fillies and chasing mares, there are more reasons than ever to breed, buy and race British. Majority funded by the HBLB.
