PLAY SMARTER
A case can be made for all of these but the votes goes to Neil Mulholland’s low-mileage 6-y-o BELLE NA BANN who took a big step forward when getting off the mark at Fontwell and can follow up off just a 2lb higher mark. Little Jessture rates the obvious threat in her bid for a fourth course success this term, with Ince and Triple Nickle also firmly in the picture.
