Flower Power and the hat-trick seeking Native Princess both carry 7lb extra in this but All Riled Up escapes a penalty as her victory came in a conditionals' race at Stratford. TAHIRA (NAP), a winner on the Flat in Germany, was probably a little unlucky against market rivals Tea In Transvaal on her hurdling debut at Uttoxeter in July. She remains capable of better and gets the nod here ahead of Midnight Gem, second in a bumper at Uttoxeter in June and bred for jumping. Kilty Caul has won a bumper and is surely better than she showed at Uttoxeter in the spring while Miss Tiger Lily can improve on her third at Worcester.
