WHITEHOTCHILLIFILI, a useful sort in bumpers, made all at Wincanton on her second start over hurdles. She had taken the measure of previous winner Kissesforkatie when that one fell and should have few problems defying her penalty in this, though will need to settle better if she is to make her mark at a higher level. Who What When also had decent form in bumpers and can only improve on her run at Newbury but More Overdraught may need today’s experience.
