Unless Miliair, placed in two bumper starts, takes an immediate liking to hurdles this looks a straightforward task for Southwell runner-up FIT THE BRIEF as her conqueror, Avispa, went on to finish second under a penalty at Newton Abbot and is a decent sort. Violets Girl has been a bit disappointing so far over timber and is well held by the selection on collateral form. It's difficult to make a case for any of the others on what they've shown so far.
