She returns to the scene of her win over the Coral Gold Cup weekend and I think she has a great chance. The dry forecast is really good for her and if it rained a heap we could miss this.

She is in very good form at home. I considered going for the Relkeel Hurdle but that looks like it is going to be loaded with 150-rated horses and we can go to that grade another day. This race has cut up a little so we are giving this handicap a go.

He steps up in trip and the ground will be no problem. He goes in bad ground and the extra distance won’t be an issue on a flat track like this. He ran really well at Sandown last time and he would have to be a player.
