Verdict

Boogie Dancer deserves to get her head in front having found one too good in each of her last two starts but may again have to settle for minor honours behind FLOWER HAVEN, who beat her over course and distance last month and can do so again despite being 1lb worse in for a head and she gets the vote to complete a four timer with the main danger rated as Onemix. Nicky Henderson's mare won a novices' hurdle at Uttoxeter last month with plenty in hand and she has to be respected despite having a 7lb penalty to carry for that success. Zoe Davison's Shropshirelass has been running well of late and has claims but may just be a shade high in the weights, while Rob Dickin's Entertain Me has more to do back in a handicap after a couple of decent effort in novice events. Dream Risk did not beat much when landing a novices' selling hurdle at Cartmel recently and preference is for the in-form Flower Haven, who can win her fourth race on the bounce.
