SHE'SASUPERMACK has had four starts over fences, winning here and finishing second three times when not beaten far. She also won twice over hurdles and will be difficult to beat. Knockoura was in excellent form at this time a year ago, completing a double at Ayr and Bangor. He hasn't been seen since pulling up at Kelso in January and could just need this. Nigel Twiston-Davies sends Ballyhill on the long journey north and though the nine-year-old hasn't been running well over hurdles he's competed at a much higher level than this over fences in his career. Protek Des Flos landed a novices' handicap at this level at Kelso in February and is only 1lb higher but Catamaran Du Seuil was beaten a long way on his comeback at Ffos Las.
