In depth

Verdict

MAKETY (NAP) built on the promise of an earlier chasing debut when scoring at Worcester last month. Oliver Sherwood’s mare can defy a 5lb rise with more to come over fences and collateral form gives her the beating of Printing Dollars on the latter’s second at Perth in July. A Little Chaos fell early at Worcester when making her chasing bow while Precious Eleanor beat Barbados Blue when scoring over hurdles at Ludlow back in March and both debut over fences.
