Amberose has recorded both wins over hurdles so far over a shorter trip at Carlisle, including last month’s success. She can figure again but OKSANA scored over 2m6f at Cartmel last time and given both placed horses have subsequently won, Sam England’s mare is taken to defy a 9lb rise and go in again. Paper Promise will be sharper for a recent comeback and won over 2m here back in March. She’s preferred to Theflickeringlight and Legalized though Lostnfound is better than her latest effort suggests.
