Sashenka would be the form pick on her best form but she’s had a few chances now and stopped quickly last time at Wetherby. Bonnie Bresil should be capable of better but we’ll forgive MALAITA her run in a decent handicap at Ludlow last time as she holds Fire Lake on collateral form. Hellfire Princess will be a danger, however, if taking to hurdles and she is a half-sister to two winning jumpers.
