Verdict
Snowberry Hill makes the short-list but he has yet to win on grass so preference is for DREAM RISK who is partnered by Serena Brotherton who has few peers in these contests. The filly failed to win in seven starts on the Flat (including four in France) but she has been successful on two of her last three starts over hurdles and may be worth another chance. Bronze Dancer has been off the track for a long time but is attractively weighted and is one to watch closely in the market with the jockey booking a positive whilst Heart Of Dubai brings more recent claims to the table following a fair third in a similar contest at Redcar.
