Effernock Fizz is 0-8 over fences but was second at Cheltenham when last seen over the larger obstacles and can’t be ignored in a race like this. MIAH GRACE, however, beat the in-form Since Day One at Newcastle having finished second in a Listed race here on her fencing bow and may have more scope. Tequila Blaze fell on her chasing bow and Fable was pulled up last time at Ffos Las but Eureka Creek didn’t handle going right-handed at Wincanton and still has time on her side.
