VIKING MISTRESS hasn’t set the world alight in a couple of runs over fences but she arrives here off the back of a couple of wins over the smaller obstacles and is 3lb lower than for the latest of those. Cry Fury has been second twice here this summer but is edging up the weights. Winning hurdler Get Ready Freddy has joined Dan Skelton and is worth a market check as his yard have done well with similar types lately.
