Not a strong mares handicap hurdle, with five of the eight runners actually maidens. Soiesauvage turned over a new leaf when bolting up at Uttoxeter last month, but from an 11lb higher mark and upped in trip, it's anyone's guess as to whether or not this quirky mare can repeat the trick. Viognier performed with credit when beaten 6L by Heart Of Kernow in a C&D maiden hurdle last month, and that form could be boosted in the opener, but whether she's strong enough on her handicap debut remains to be seen. Therefore, a chance is taken on the returning top-weight THEATRE ACT. She might not be fully tuned up and ready to go and that's an obvious risk, but she knows how to win races and is essentially better than this field of rivals.
