      Verdict

      BELLATRIXSA still needs to brush up her jumping but she came readily clear at Huntingdon in March after a promising first run over timber at Aintree when quite well supported. She should go on the better things and is receiving weight all round here despite carrying a penalty. Rapid Flight is improving with experience and the Warwick third looks the only conceivable danger barring accidents.
