UHAVEMEINSTITCHES looks to have a bright future over fences and it's likely we haven't seen the best of her yet. She gets the nod in an open-looking renewal of this event. Montregard boasts a good strike rate over fences and may provide the chief threat, whilst Invictus Machin and Kish Bank are also of interest.
