Forecasts

Snapdragon Fire (7/2), Monday Club (7/2), Beach Break (9/2), Minellaforleisure (11/2), Cubswin (11/2), Solstalla (10/1), Mister Universum (14/1), Collodi (33/1)

The drop in distance can see SOLSTALLA record a victory off bottom weight in this competitive lady riders handicap hurdle. The selection has a useful conditional jockey booked to ride and can see off Beach Break who should appreciate this return to handicap company while third place can go the way of Snapdragon Fire who ran well when placed on his penultimate start.
