    Verdict

    Emma Lavelle's EASTER LEGEND was useful over hurdles and comfortably justified short odds when landing a mares beginners' chase at Fontwell last month on her debut over the larger obstacles; she has an obvious chance to win again so can follow up that success. Dansimar was a faller behind the selection at Fontwell and is hard to recommend so of more interest may be Cartmel winner Magical Legend, who is capable but is likely to struggle under her penalty. Bosamcliff will need to improve on hurdles form to play a part in the finish and a bigger threat may come from Keith Goldsworthy's Prescelli, who is only rated 112 over hurdles and has been pulled up in her last two starts but she may do better now switched to fences.
