A winner over fences at Leicester back in March, PLAYING WITH FIRE found the progressive Balzaccio too good at Huntingdon last time. She should be spot on now on her third start of the season and is preferred to Daneva, who went close at Stratford three weeks ago but would prefer faster ground. Way Back When faded badly on her chasing debut and return to action at Fontwell recently and may need another couple of runs under her belt, but Kings Queen is worth noting on her first start over fences.
