Gabriella Rose won nicely at Towcester last time but is penalised as a consequence and has to give weight to KILRONAN HIGH. The latter finished a street clear of the rest when runner-up to Bitofapuzzle at Wincanton early in the month and the dual bumper winner can go one better in this. Knocklayde Express made a winning start in a bumper back in February and has her first start since but Altesse De Guye was still in contention when falling at Uttoxeter and looks a bigger threat.
