Ustica is tried in blinkers after disappointing in his last couple of starts. My Legal Lady was pulled up in a Listed contest at Cheltenham last time and this may also be beyond her but Laughton Park won in this grade at Plumpton in February and was only beaten a neck back at the Sussex track last time. Buck Magic has been well beaten in his last three starts over hurdles but is starting to come down the weights. RAAJIH ran a cracker over fences at Aintree on his first start for Richard Woollacott. He's rated 9lb lower over hurdles so has to be the selection.
