Fair maiden who ran one of her better races when second of 6 in handicap hurdle over C&D 20 days ago. Others remain more persuasive though.

Forecasts

Rukaana (11/8), Eliza Dolittle (9/2), Market House (5/1), Washington Singer (6/1), Ephyra (10/1), Ahellofaman (12/1), Path Of Stars (16/1), Smith (33/1)

Verdict

RUKAANA arrives at the top of his game and is fancied to resume winning ways off the same mark as when an excellent recent Kempton third. Market House also comes here in good nick from a spell on the Flat and is next on the list ahead of Irish challenger Ahellofaman.
