      Verdict

      Leading Theatre won on faster going at Fontwell before placing at Taunton though this is tougher and Happy Company is preferred on last month’s victory at Lingfield. The latter is 5lb higher having had an outing on the Flat subsequently but MISSED TEE opened her account over hurdles with a maiden success at Uttoxeter and with further progress expected now handicapping, Dan Skelton’s mare gets the vote. Ramo failed to land the odds at Leicester but may prove best of the rest.
