Forecasts
Shambra (6/5), Blue Valentine (2/1), Northern Beau (5/1), Trooblue (16/1), Hijran (20/1), Fleur Du Pommier (20/1)
Given that she was only allowed to go off at 9-2 at Doncaster in December, Blue Valentine must be reasonably well thought of and she could do better here now dropped in trip after a wind op and for a trainer who won this race two years ago. Trooblue is also of interest on her hurdles debut for a stable that does so consistently well here, while Shambra can make a bold bid for a hat-trick and is feared. However, NORTHERN BEAU also handles this ground, stays well and is taken to improve on her promising Musselburgh hurdles debut and go one better this time.
