Winner at Newcastle in February. 5/1, fifth of 8 in handicap at Kempton (12f) 20 days ago, having run of race. Tongue strap on 1st time and will be a threat if she puts her best foot forward.

3/1
Creditable third of 12 in novice hurdle at Fakenham (16f, good, 7/1) 16 days ago, running on. Respectable fourth of 9 on latest effort in this sphere at Haydock and he's a must for the shortlist.

Lightly-raced maiden on Flat. Five-time winner over hurdles. Below par when a well-held second in a selling hurdle at Wetherby on latest start in March. Opposable back in this sphere on debut for new yard.

Forecasts

The Dancing Poet (85/40), Natchez Trace (3/1), Rayena (9/2), Made For You (17/2), Polar Princess (11/1), Carlos Felix (12/1), Swift Tuttle (16/1), Milltown Lily (18/1), Straitouttacompton (40/1)

Verdict

NATCHEZ TRACE performed with credit off a 2 lb higher mark than this in a more competitive handicap at Haydock last month, and also acquitted himself well over hurdles recently. The 7-y-o could be the answer to this open-looking handicap, with Polar Princess and Rayena likely to emerge as the main dangers.

  1. Natchez Trace3/1
  2. Polar Princess11/1
  3. Rayena9/2
