QUEENOHEARTS hasn't been seen for the best part of 2 years, but her previous form reads well and she remains with potential now stepping up to three miles, so looks the most persuasive option in a race where it is not hard to pick holes in the opposition. Goodbye Dancer hinted at a revival at Cheltenham last week, so could be the one to pose the biggest threat if building on that effort.
