2/1

Improved in blinkers the last twice, winning handicap chases at Worcester and Newton Abbot (25.8f). All out last week but suspect she remains ahead of her mark and good chance in hat-trick bid.

Forecasts

Ya Know Yaseff (2/1), Justshortofabubble (5/2), R Bernard (5/1), Dragonfruit (6/1), Cresswell Queen (13/2), Lough Salt (12/1), Barely Famous (16/1), Rebel Leader (22/1), Out For The Count (33/1)

YA KNOW YASEFF had to work quite hard when scoring at Newton Abbot last week but there is a good chance she remains ahead of her mark and is fancied to get the hat-trick up for David Pipe. Justshortofabubble remains in form and can chase her home again. Dragonfruit is interesting off a career-low mark back from 6 months off.
