MAKETY was beaten only a neck in a handicap at Fakenham when last in action in January and may prove good enough on her return. She should have the measure of the likes of Liffeydale Dreamer and Break The Rules on these terms but Ellarna is less exposed. Pulled-up at Newcastle on her hurdling bow, the Nicholls’ mare is having her second outing after wind surgery while Golden Emblem debuts over hurdles having placed in a bumper at Chepstow in March. Fleur Du Seuil should improve for last week’s outing at Uttoxeter while Belatrix Lestrange can do better on today’s faster ground.
