      Verdict

      See The Sea has won 13 of her 42 career starts and gets on well with Peter Kavanagh but a recent victory at Plumpton has lifted her to a career-high mark. Monsieur Lecoq is best over fences nowadays but there should be more to come from Holly this season after only two runs over timber. Another half-mile would have suited NINA THE TERRIER (NAP) but her form last season was on a different level to most of these and she runs well fresh. Sonigino has yet to win since joining Paul Nicholls but has had wind surgery since last season and still has time on his side.
