A well-contested mares’ maiden to end proceedings. Vive Ma Fille, a useful middle-distance performer on the Flat, made a good impression on her first start over timber at Wincanton, only giving best on the run-in. She has to go on the short-list but PEGGIES VENTURE, who has a cracking pedigree for jumping, just gets the nod as she probably exceeded expectations in bumpers when just beaten in a Listed contest here last month. The Henderson pair, Silent Steps and Scorpio Queen, should be winning soon and Hitherjacques Lady ran well for third at Ludlow. Midnight Tune has also hinted at ability and preferred to Mariah's Legend and Squeaky of the others.
