Carole's Tzarina was beaten 12l in a Fontwell bumper in March and takes on some in-form rivals on her hurdling bow. Fivetotwelve has been finding little at the business end over this sort of trip but MULBERRY HILL, an import from the Irish point-to-point field, made a fine debut for new connections over this track and trip and can go one better. Present Storm was probably unlucky in a handicap here last time as her rider lost an iron. She only failed narrowly to peg back Give Us A Swig, who runs earlier, and should make a bold bid to go one better.
