Verdict

La Belle Doyenne didn't go on from her winning bumper debut at Towcester and now makes her hurdling debut. Queen Of The West arrives on the back of a pointing win and makes her hurdling debut too but the two with form in the book are Sarah Collins and WESTERN APPROACHES, both of whom are tongue-tied. There's practically nothing between the pair on ratings but narrow preference is for the latter, back down in trip after a solid third at Southwell last time. Her run at Cheltenham last October when under a length third to Court In Session appeals as the best form on offer. Sarah Collins has her second run for Evan Williams after crossing the Irish Sea and houses obvious claims after a runner-up effort at Southwell on her stable debut.
