Verdict

ALPINE BREEZE showed a fine turn of foot to beat the useful Aneyeforaneye at Market Rasen and she looks to have a future over fences. Don Cantillon's mare can defy her penalty here and get the better of Paddy The Hare, who made mistakes when third at Worcester last month and may need more time to get the hang of jumping fences. Johnny No Cash would need something to happen to his two rivals to end up in the winner's enclosure but should plod around in his own time.
