In depth

Verdict

GALLOPING QUEEN was second to Hope Point on her hurdling debut at Huntingdon and that looks stronger form than Symphony Of Love's run behind A Little Bit Dusty in a Ludlow seller last time. Wild Hysteria was soon tailed off when pulled up at Warwick earlier this month and looks very modest while Malanos only made the frame once in 11 starts on the Flat and it will be a surprise if he can overcome his relative lack of experience, even in this small field.
