Verdict

YOUNG MAGS' Towcester win in November hasn't been franked and she was well beaten in her only subsequent start in better company at Newbury. But this looks a very modest affair and, with Noel Fehily in the saddle, Fergal O'Brien's mare may well be good enough to defy her penalty back on better ground. Blowing A Hoolie didn't run badly over C&D in January and was fourth at Taunton on her latest start. She may be the danger as point-to-point winner Like Ben has shown nothing under Rules so far and Kabira was well beaten on her hurdling debut.
