Verdict

There is more quantity than quality on offer in this opener but Oscar Jane was beaten less than a length by Native Display at Plumpton last month and the winner has been placed since off a higher mark. Think Of Me ran her best race so far at Worcester three weeks ago while Sunshine Buddy is usually thereabouts in this grade. Tara's Rainbow and All Riled Up are others to consider but a tentative vote goes to SHAKY GIFT given she was making her hurdling debut when third at Newton Abbot in September and can only improve.
