BURN THE EVIDENCE has improved with every run and was a convincing winner of an Ayr bumper last month. This isn't the toughest start over hurdles and she can get off the mark. Gjoumi has failed to complete in two of four starts over timber since landing a bumper in France and may do better on quicker ground. She's the only logical danger with Splashing Out a possible place prospect as she's a half-sister to a winning hurdler out of a mare who won over hurdles and fences.
