Oscar Rose complicates matters as she has every chance but was due to run at Cheltenham yesterday. Fool To Cry also has a shout on last month’s third at Huntingdon though she’s not the most reliable and it could pay to stick with STEPOVER (NAP). The latter won at Hereford on her latest start and is only 3lb higher today in what looks an easier contest. Midnight Silver and Iconic Sky should have come on for recent comeback runs and both look fairly treated.
