In depth

Verdict

Micks Jet won here in the spring but was only fourth when favourite at Sedgefield on her reappearance, behind runner-up Backdoorflush. Larchmont Lass was progressive last season but is penalised for winning a Listed race at Sandown in March and plenty of others bring winning form into the race. Nicky Henderson’s Easy Peasy is 2-2 but Willie Mullins‘ BABY KATE had no trouble landing the odds at Ballinrobe in August and will have learned plenty that day. Sunset Marquesa and Springs A Girl are others with bags of scope and Sharp Object is closely matched with the selection on collateral form.
