FORM F22-634

TIMEFORM VIEW Won a similar event at Huntingdon last season. Just the one decent effort from 3 outings so far this term, though faced a stiff task on reappearance. Needs to raise her game back up in trip

FORM 0/011P-0 C

TIMEFORM VIEW Progressive as a novice hurdler and kicked on again last season with back-to-back wins at Kempton (24.5f)/Exeter (23f). However, looked very rusty after 11 months off at Ffos Las 3 weeks ago and rather thrown into the deep end on chase bow.

FORM 1155-43 D

TIMEFORM VIEW Likeable mare who made a winning reappearance last season before following up at Hereford. All the better for return this time when good third in handicap at Wincanton under this rider 10 days ago, finished with running left after fluffing the last. Needs considering.

FORM 1r-2212 C

TIMEFORM VIEW Useful handicap hurdler who confirmed promise of her chasing debut when comfortably landing the odds in 3-runner novice at Fontwell (19.5f) in November Excellent second in handicap at Wincanton since and big shout on these terms back up in trip

Probable S.P’s: 6-4 Kissesforkatie (IRE), 2-1 Kapga de Lily (FR), 9-2 Pink Legend (GB), 14-1 Rose of Arcadia (IRE), 25-1 Emmpressive Lady (IRE)

PLAY SMARTER

KISSESFORKATIE and Kapga de Lily are closely matched on what they have achieved so far but the former has scope for further improvement after just 3 starts over fences so gets the vote Kapga de Lily’s stablemate Pink Legend is best of the rest
