Forecasts

Frelia (2/5), Queen Olivia (5/2), Florella (10/3), Distracted (16/1), Onceuponathyme (50/1)

QUEEN OLIVIA has won both of her point-to-point starts this year and can register a first hunter chase success at the expense of Frelia here. The latter was successful at Cheltenham last time out but has to carry a penalty here with third place taken to go the way of the lightly raced Florella who ran well on her first run for over three years earlier this month.
