Verdict

A winner of one of these events over track and trip in September, Katie Gale was well beaten in a handicap last time and returns under a penalty. That should give the advantage to Alan King’s CAJUN FIDDLE, a runner-up at Uttoxeter on her recent reappearance and likely to go close again in this. Versifier posted a better effort in a bumper at Fontwell recently and makes her hurdling debut along with Nampararoo, also placed in a bumper last month. The remainder are harder to fancy unless Insight, without a win on the Flat, proves above average over hurdles.
