        Verdict

        Hillcrest Fire beat SHEE’S LUCKY more than four lengths at Leicester with Penny Red further behind. She then tried her luck in a Listed race at Aintree but was well beaten. Neil Mulholland’s filly is now 6lb better off so has every chance of turning the tables. Quimba didn’t have the pace to get competitive over 1m4f in a Newbury bumper but should do better over 2m. Shambra won twice on the Flat, including on heavy ground, but there are no jumpers among her close relatives.
