She's Humble loves it around here and scored over the C&D last month from a 3lb lower mark. She should go well again but AMAURY DE LUSIGNAN should prove more than a match for her. Gary Moore's charge was having just his second run over fences when gaining a comfortable victory at Folkestone and an 8lb rise looks manageable. Hellfire Club owes his supporters plenty having been a beaten favourite in his three starts since returning from a long break. He's obviously well-regarded but will need to show more if he's to recoup losses. Quipe Me Posted was in very good form at this time last year but his handicap mark shot up as a consequence and he's been struggling.
