IZZINI was most accomplished in compiling a bumper hat-trick for the shrewd Crawford yard which raids the UK so impressively and looked equally at home when making a stylish winning debut over timber at Sedgefield. Her only defeat came in this year's Cheltenham Festival bumper and she's hard to oppose. Western Diva is the logical danger, having progressed well over hurdles and far from disgraced last time in a decent Punchestown contest for the Pipe team. The consistent Conjola looks booked for third spot says the formbook.
