Verdict

Strathspey stands out as the TEAMtalk selection after a series of credible efforts in similar events of late. Her course and distance experience should stand her in good stead and the booking of Windle Woods is also a plus. Castanet and Bright Green could give her the most to do if they can find a little improvement. Whereas Calvados and Branston Nell should be closely monitored in the betting.
