In depth

Verdict

Postbridge only found Potters Legend too good here in October and should know more today. But the winner's trainer, Lucy Wadham, sends out POTTERS LADY JANE today and she may be the value. The Sir Percy filly attracted support on her debut in a better race at Newbury and only weakened inside the final furlong. Llantara showed promise at Towcester while Focusing is another with scope for improvement. Our Savannah is a full sister to winning hurdler Pistol so may be the pick of the newcomers.
