No Woman No Cry has won three times here, twice over course and distance. But he's been well below par lately and was also engaged to run here yesterday. SUGAR HICCUP tackles fast ground for the first time over hurdles having won on good to firm on the Flat. She may well be thrown in off a mark of 78 in this and can get off the mark as few of the others have shown any worthwhile form. Bold Tara still has a bit of scope and could fare best of the rest as this could prove to be her ideal trip, though Illegale should make the frame again.
