Verdict

Helen Wood has been in decent form over hurdles but all of her wins have come on softer ground and so we will take her on with Tibouchina whilst Move Over Darling would be a danger if putting it all in. The selection is yet to win in nine starts all told which is slightly worrying, however she showed a decent level of form when trained over in Ireland and there have been glimpses of ability in her two starts in England so far. This will be the quickest ground that she has encountered however her sire handled quick ground so she can break her duck today. Helen Wood is the most obvious of dangers however she was running in sellers before going hurdling and is at her best on soft ground, although she has run well on quicker ground. Move Over Darling warrants a check in the betting however she has shown very little so far and maybe some form of headgear will be employed in the future. Chia has been in fair form on the all-weather and now steps up in trip, so stamina must be taken on trust. Gigi Glamour is on a lowly mark but looks woeful, and so we will return to Tibouchina as the selection.
