Prayerful, gets the confident vote with Neltina and Lady of Scarvagh rating the main dangers. The selection would win this easily on her best form and although she has failed to complete the course on her last two starts she has had valid excuses. She has her optimum conditions here and it will be disappointing if she does not win. Neltina rates the main danger on her best hurdles form but she took a heavy fall when last seen over fences and for that reason she is opposed. Lady of Scarvagh is another that could go well but her best form is on a much softer surface. Of the remainder Fairly Smart is from a yard in-form and should be noted in the market but for the winner we return to Prayerful.
