In depth

Verdict

The slight drop in distance should suit Molly's A Diva, who could only muster the one pace over 3m at Kempton last week. She won't be far away but Double Double has an absence and top weight to overcome while Ashford Wood and Fishing Bridge finished behind Molly's A Diva here in November. Dunlough Bay and Ashes House were both pulled up last time so this looks a good opportunity for SPEED MASTER to pick up the winning thread again. Back over hurdles, he ran a fine race behind Ulzana's Raid at Cheltenham last month and races off the same mark here. Chesterten got back to winning ways at Uttoxeter in November but has 10lb more to carry in this better race.
