Verdict

LUTINEBELLA's placed effort in the Grade 2 bumper at Aintree signalled a likely strong novice hurdle campaign and after a slightly disappointing opener she had plenty in hand over Annie Magic at Exeter with the remainder out with the washing. She'll improve again and can take care of She's A Saint, runner-up to the smart Luccia in a Listed contest at Newbury. Credrojava hasn't put a foot wrong in a point, a bumper and a Fontwell novices' contest where she made all and won unchallenged. Magical Maggie was very disappointing at Lingfield after impressing on her hurdling debut at Uttoxeter and wouldn't want more rain.
