Corrigeen Rock found only one too good attempting to defy a penalty at Sandown last time and should be in the mix oncagain with a similar effort but SALSADA goes well fresh as she showed when winning easily at Sedgefield on her hurdling debut in October when beating a subsequent dual winner - Brian Ellison’s mare looks the one to side with in this. Well Planted has plenty to find on these terms though is still preferred to Breaking Records.
