In depth

Verdict

BARDEN BELLA gets to take her chance off a significantly lower rating than over fences as Christian Williams sends her over hurdles for the first time since 2020. Danzini has hit the frame off similar marks in the past and is sure to give another solid account of herself. Harry Whittington’s runners have been going close so Kempton bumper winner Sheila Nash is of interest now she is stepped up substantially in distance.
