RACE SUMMARY:

MY VIRTUE showed much improved form and marked herself down as one to keep onside when opening her account at Southwell 25 days ago and she makes plenty of appeal in her follow-up bid from 6lb higher. Hot Fizzy Lizzy has all the hallmarks of an improver now handicapping and she’s well worth a second a look also. Cellar Club and Mrs Kinsella are a couple of others fancied to be thereabouts.

FORGET THE WAY made a positive start for this yard when third back over hurdles at Huntingdon on return and can build on his promising chase bow at the second attempt. He’s preferred to Isholo Du Vivien, who showed an aptitude for chasing when fourth at Warwick last month. Jeudidee makes most appeal of the chase debutants.
