Verdict

SUPREME MALINAS built on the promise she showed in bumpers with an impressive hurdling debut success at Exeter last month and she's fancied to follow up. Jackie Hobbs looks the main danger in her bid to make it 2-2 over hurdles, the form of her Newbury success working out well, while hat-trick seeking La Zoubida is another to note in a field stacked with potential improvers.

  1. SUPREME MALINAS (IRE)
  2. JACKIE HOBBS
  3. LA ZOUBIDA (FR)
