Verdict

Nicky Henderson's INDEPENDENT LADY should have more to offer on the back of last month's C&D handicap debut success and is selected to make light of a 5 lb rise, perhaps at the expense of Alan King's Huntingdon runner-up Innisfree Pearl. Miss Kassiopi is next on the list.

  1. INDEPENDENT LADY (GER)
  2. INNISFREE PEARL
  3. MISS KASSIOPI
