Verdict

VIA VOLUPTA hasn't raced since November but finished almost four lengths ahead of Awesome Rosie, out of her depth at Cheltenham last month, on that occasion and has only found one too good on all three starts over hurdles. Her head second to Tea In Transvaal at Southwell last June turned out to be decent form and she should finally open her account today. Up Till Midnight led for a long way in a bumper at Warwick on her racecourse debut but winning pointer Ziggerson Hill may not have much scope.
