Previous course and distance winner BLUE SANS is back with Fergal O’Brien after just one run between the flags. Tom Broughton takes off 7lb and he doesn’t have much to beat in this. Barely Famous was in good form in the autumn but hasn’t raced since October and is having a first run for a new stable. Whenthepennydrops has been looking very one paced but Southwell third Valentine Getaway remains unexposed. Faerie Cutlass has one piece of form that would give her a chance but she’s done all of her racing over hurdles so far at Taunton.
