Verdict

Michael Scudamore runs two in this but winning pointer Two Smokin Barrels and Grace Tara, who has scored between the flags and in a bumper, have lengthy lay-offs to overcome. SONG SAA beat a more-experienced short-priced favourite on her debut over hurdles at Huntingdon and should be capable of shrugging off her penalty as Tom George's string is going well at present. None of the others make much appeal.
