LITTLE MISS POET and Lamanver Odyssey have both won over timber but the former has coped better under penalties and was second again at Sedgefield last time. Philip Hobbs’ mare has a bit to spare on these terms with Sue Be It, who was third behind a subsequent winner at Leicester back in January. Black Tulip posted a much better effort when fourth at Exeter on her latest start and could get involved while Ruby Russet ran well at Wincanton in between more modest efforts.
