Verdict
Southwell bumper winner MONITA BONITA made mistakes when only fifth on her hurdles bow at Newcastle. But she must have been showing something at home because she was sent off favourite. Expect her to improve considerably on that first effort and she may be able to get the better of another bumper winner, Reves D'Amour, whose Towcester second is working out well. Jamie Snowden's filly isn't certain to appreciate the extra yardage, however. Hellesbelles can improve on her fourth at Musselburgh and should be best of the rest.
