Avispa certainly wasn't winning out of turn at Southwell and it would be no surprise if she followed up under a penalty. But LETS HOPE SO was challenging when falling two out in that Southwell contest and connections will fancy their chances of revenge on 6lb better terms. Violets Girl and Ivor's Queen have shown some ability, as has What A Saga, but Water Willow may be a bigger danger as she will have learnt plenty from her third at Wincanton.
