    Verdict

    Kaffie sets the standard here on her win at Exeter and Kim Bailey has put a claimer up to negate the penalty. The second in that race has let the form down since however. Bollin Tahini should improve for her hurdling debut at Catterick while La Belle Sauvage, just beaten in a Towcester bumper earlier this month, could come into her own now tackling a set of obstacles and Grassfinch again showed promise when fifth on her reappearance at Fontwell. A market move for Fiorenza would be interesting but LEGENDARY HOP's second to Harry The Viking at Towcester was a very decent effort and Chris Bealby's mare can continue her upward curve by landing this.
