Not won over hurdles since her novice days and recent form has been patchy. has been placed off this mark before but not particularly well treated and has it all to do under top weight.
Has a C&D win to her name on similar ground and is better than she showed last time out. Dropped 2lb since and back on a winning mark, the six-year-old would be dangerous to omit from the betting plans without a betting check.
Won a bumper at Catterick last March but form over hurdles has been modest and regressive since. However, she was 9l ahead of She's Gina last time and has to be highly respected as they meet on the same terms once more.
Claims on the pick of her form but she was already tailed off when pulled up latest and has plenty to prove on that score. Her previous effort, which was he first start after wind surgery, was better, but the mare needs to bounce back.
Ran well in a handful of modest races before being pulled up when last seen out. Had wind surgery since but has a long absence to overcome. Others more appealing.
The youngest mare in the line up but has started to get the hang of things since joining her current yard. Set to race from just out of the weights but has been improving lately. Up in class but very possible she's up to the task.

Riviere Argentee (9/4), Lostnfound (4/1), Shroughmore Lass (9/2), Sea Story (5/1), Bee Crossing (5/1), She's Gina (6/1), All My Love (7/1)
An ordinary mares only race in which Riviere Argentee might well be the one open to the most improvement and is worth serious consideration. However, there could also be some value in siding with SEA STORY, who has some good form to her name in races of this nature and, as she's weighted to confirm the recent for with She's Gina, it's Kim Baliley's mare who makes the most appeal for a small punt this time around.
