The unbeaten nationl hunt bumper winner Turbo Linn can win her first official race on the level at the expense of Square Dealer and Still Dreaming who both worthy of mention. The selection comes from a yard that is doing well under both codes but she has been very impressive in winning all her bumper races. She finished off a fantastic year by winning the mares championship bumper at Aintree in April and if reproducing the same level of form on the flat she should have no trouble landing the odds at short odds. Square Dealer wears blinkers for the first time and did not run badly on the level last time when sixth of twelve at Thirsk last time. He had previously shown a little over jumps and in such a poor contest can finish in the prize money. As can Still Dreaming who showed a certain amount of ability on his debut at Redcar to warrant a little respect but will struggle to catch Turbo Linn who can continue her unbeaten record.
