2/1
Has a 4-11 record and was supported last time only to be cut down by an in form rival. A 5lb rise makes this tougher but she arrives in better shape and with more scope for improvement than most of these.

10/1
Last run was a tame effort even allowing for it coming in higher grade. Has something to prove having gone winless for almost two years.

9/2
Finished 90L behind Kayla at Uttoxeter last summer but has since proved himself to be a lot better than that. Returned from five months on the sidelines to produce another gallant front running effort and a 3lb drop in the weights will do nicely.

6/1
Has been in good form on the Flat lately and gained a deserved success at Lingfield three weeks ago. Has first run over timber for new yard and worth a check in the ring.

8/1
Lightly raced sort who capitalised on a fine tactical ride and mistakes by his rivals to score at Plumpton last month. Tailed off next time and hard to know what this inconsistent type might do.

10/3
Has won a bumper and a Towcester maiden hurdle. Has attracted support on a number of occasions since without repaying that faith. Tackles an extra couple of furlongs here and the gallop, that Linguine will set, should help this mare.

Verdict

Kayla is relatively low mileage and found an in form rival too good for her last time when finishing clear of the third. A 5lb rise for that defeat raises questions as to whether she has missed the boat or can find the extra required to win this. That task is made harder by the presence of LINGUINE who has been dropped 3lb in the weights following his return from a five month break. The front-runner has gone down to Rouge Devils and Templehills in novice hurdles last autumn and looks well treated here on that form. Night Generation is a recent winner on the level and will appreciate this stamina test as will Miss Yeats and Lillian.
