MISS BLANCHE has yet to be placed in six starts over timber but has won between the flags and over fences recently and if carrying that improvement over to hurdles would be very difficult to beat from this lowly mark. Tb Broke Her also produced an improved run over fences last time and has run well over timber here in the past so looks a threat while Better Back Bob scored over the bigger obstacles here in October and will have needed last month's run here after a long break. Personal Shopper has a strike-rate of 1-63 but has moved to Gavin Cromwell who gets the best out of similar types and she can hardly get any lower in the weights.
