Verdict

Ambience Lady, Miss Cool and Tucacas look the ones to concentrate on in this mares only race and the suggestion is Ambience Lady in a tricky race to call. The selection does probably not have as much ability as the Pipe pair but she is the most fluent jumper of the three and for that reason is taken to score. Miss Cool would be a short priced favourite if this were a hurdle race but she has not progressed as expected over fences her only victory coming in this sphere coming in a soft race at Newton Abbott. Tucacas was a fair fifth behind Supreme Prince last time but stopped very quickly four out so can not be backed with any confidence. Of the remainder Cyanara is sure to get round in her own time, but only has one victory to her name. So in a race where stakes should be kept to a minimum we will side with Ambience Lady.
