Verdict

This can go to SPIT SPOT, who showed more like her Flat form with her hurdling debut under her belt when runner-up at Wetherby last month and with a first-time tongue tie applied, Lucinda Russell's mare may well prove difficult to stop. Bumper winner Vanilla Dancer heads up the dangers, with Emily's Choice (who took 7 attempts to get off the mark in Irish points) also considered.
