The four-year-old filly Pepite Rose gets all the allowances here and the fact that her only victory to date came over the C&D will make her difficult to beat. Kaituna landed a novive hurdle at Plumton over 2m5f before falling early at Towcester. She may be better over further but Accordingtolawrence weakened quickly over 2m3f at Exeter after scoring over two furlongs shorter there earlier. Winning point-to-pointers Baile Anrai and Cottage Acre are not without a chance but RAYA STAR looks the one to be on. Alan King's son of Milan was a bumper winner at Uttoxeter on his racecourse debut last March and was having his first outing subsequently when a good second to Avoca Promise at Bangor last month when conceding 7lb to the winner.
