Forecasts

Polly's Pursuit (5/2), Kalahari Queen (10/3), Lamanver Odyssey (4/1), Rejaah (8/1), Bee Crossing (9/1), Monar Rose (11/1), Whatsthatallabout (11/1), Ten Times Better (28/1)

After putting up her best effort so far last time out at Doncaster, it could pay to side with POLLY'S PURSUIT here, despite a 2lb rise. Nicky Henderson's mare handles soft ground and this furlong shorter trip looks ideal. Rejaah has dropped to an eyecatching mark if she can come on for her first run back after a long absence, while Ten Times Better also has ability but she has both fitness and well being to prove. So too Monar Rose after a wind op. Lamanver Odyssey should be a contender if she can brush up on her hurdling technique, while it is not easy to rule out Whatsthatallabout, Kalahari Queen or Bee Crossing in an open-looking heat.
