Verdict
AHORSEWITHNONAME has won twice on the Flat since last seen over hurdles and finishing runner-up in a Grade 2 at Cheltenham in March. She’s the one to beat in this receiving weight from Endless Escape. The latter is penalised having made a winning debut over timber when scoring at Lingfield while Passionate Pursuit was only beaten a neck over track and trip on her hurdling bow and is preferred to Porter In The Park. The selection’s stablemate Roccstar Bay has placed in a bumper and is related to a couple of winning hurdlers.
