Crazy Luck hasn’t won since landing this race last year and remains 7lb higher while both Lil Guff and Makarova failed in their respective bids to land a hat-trick last time and race off the same marks today. Flamenco Fan won a novices race in good style and is preferred to Noya but TARHIB (NAP) gets another chance. The latter is fitted with a tongue-tie having returned to form when runner-up at Chelmsford and drops down in class on her second outing after wind surgery.
