Verdict

Marsh Wren beat Annie Magic by more than two lengths over hurdles at the start of the year but the latter is now 8lb better off and has had wind surgery since. Lagonda was only beaten a head over fences at Exeter in February and won later over hurdles at Chepstow but Lily Glitters will need to improve on her two runs over the larger obstacles to date. Malaita was second at Ludlow last month, however, and KRAQUELINE went one better at Wincanton. Kerry Lee's mare is 8lb higher here but there is plenty of scope for improvement. Moviddy made mistakes on her fencing bow but she is another likely to take a step forward here.
