Verdict

TREATY GIRL looks the one to beat on her recent win at Huntingdon. She was having only her second start over timber when landing a maiden hurdle by 10 lengths and is preferred to the other winner in the field, Mystic Sky. The latter has been well beaten since scoring at Fakenham in December and Maid Of Milan may improve past her on the back of a second at Doncaster. The newcomer Gowell would not need to be anything out of the ordinary to get the better of Sweet'n'chic and Wun Destination.
