Verdict

FASHIONABLE GAL, twice a winner over 1m2f on the Polytrack, made an eye-catching debut over hurdles at Huntingdon earlier this week when routing more experienced opposition. Only lightly-raced, she looks a nice prospect and should have no problems following up here under a penalty. Spiritual Art won a maiden hurdle at Newton Abbot last month but has been well beaten on the Flat since and has to give 4lb to Neil King's filly. Aintree bumper winner Set In Her Ways may be best of the rest as Maid Of Silk didn't show much on her hurdles bow at Fontwell.
