Verdict
Several of these have been hurdling including Main Fact, who notched-up a five-timer over timber early this year though hasn’t raced since March. Eddiemaurice won over hurdles here back in January and Kozier is another returning to action. Mere Anarchy scored over 1m6f at Salisbury when last on the Flat while Master Milliner won over a shorter trip at Bath last month. Tynecastle Park is best at Southwell but GRACEFUL LADY is back on a winning mark having struggled in the Cesarewitch at Newmarket last time and gets the vote to repeat her victory in this in 2018.
