LITTLE MISS POET had decent bumper form last season and is an interesting recruit to hurdling. She finished well ahead of My Khaleesi in a Listed race at Aintree last April but the latter does have hurdling experience having finished second behind a useful sort at Haydock having earlier unseated her rider at the second here. Taws was a decent stayer on the Flat but she has a long absence to overcome ahead of her first appearance over timber. Postbridge proved one paced in bumpers but should do better over hurdles and has more scope than Lady Markby and Goodnitesweetheart.
