Verdict

Fairfield Ferrata looks a nice hurdling prospect after battling on to land a bumper at Ayr. She's a well-bred filly with more to offer and should take some beating. WEST END LADY has experience over timber having finished third in what looked a strong mares' event over the course and distance last month. She looks the one to beat with normal progress. Charm Offensive showed some potential in bumpers and didn't run too badly on her hurdling debut at Ayr so could be booked for a place.
