Found some improvement for step up to 2½m when outpointing next-time-out winner Forthegreatergood in a Worcester maiden when last seen in June. Obvious claims despite dropping back in trip/penalty.

Sent off at 50/1 and trailed in last in a 7-runner bumper on recent debut at Warwick. Huge step forward needed now tackling hurdles.

Runner-up final point start and also found just one too good on hurdles bow at Uttoxeter (15.8f) in November. Leading claims starting out for new yard here, for all that a stiffer test would be ideal.

Forecasts

Walk In Clover (2/9), Legendary Grace (10/3), Diva's Mix (33/1), Minnie Mia (80/1)

Verdict

This is a two-horse race in all but name, with WALK IN CLOVER and Legendary Grace unlikely to have much to fear from Diva's Mix and Minnie Mia judged on the evidence available. Walk In Clover is preferred on debut for the Dan Skelton yard, given that her main rival is penalised for last summer's Worcester success.

  1. WALK IN CLOVER (IRE)
  2. LEGENDARY GRACE
  3. DIVA'S MIX
