More than half of these fillies are having a first run over hurdles. Of those, Royal Athena is preferred to the unraced Virginia Lodge but experience could be key. Jockey bookings would suggest Majestic Jameela is preferred to Limelight of Stuart Edmund’s pair with the latter well behind Grain Of Hope at Fontwell but all eyes will be on KUNDALINE. James Reveley has accompanied the French raider across the Channel and the daughter of Castle Du Berlais can take advantage of this drop in class.
