LILLY PEDLAR's placed effort in a Grade 2 handicap at Newbury in March would be much too good for these and she found fast ground against her at Sandown last month. Dancing Dani easily won a point at Moig South before a very encouraging debut over timber at Newton Abbot where she led for a long way over that 2m5f trip. Gerboise Borget took a crashing fall on her hurdling bow at Southwell in August and hasn't been seen since while Chantilly Haze, runner-up in a Chepstow bumper in March, was beaten a long way on her hurdling debut at Warwick.
Chantilly Haze 25-1 (11-0) Prominent, not fluent 1st or 2nd, slow and lost place 3rd, well beaten from 5th, 10th of 16, dist behind Nina The Terrier (11-0) at Warwick 2m mdn (4) gs in May.
Dancing Dani (IRE) 66-1 (10-12) Led, pressed when ridded on the run to 2 out, hampered when headed at 2 out, kept on in 2nd, held on to 2nd when challenged near the post, 2nd of 9, 2 1/2l behind Dragon Bones (11-8) at Newton Abbot 2m 6f (3) gd in May.
Gerboise Borget (FR) 7-2 (10-12) Fell at the 1st, at Southwell 2m (4) gd in Aug.
Lilly Pedlar 14-1 (11-0) Chased leader, led 3rd until ridden and headed on long run before 2 out, weakened rapidly and pulled up before 2 out, at Sandown 2m hcp (2) gd in Apr.
