Verdict

Most of My Viking Bay's recent placed form has come in sellers while Blowing A Hoolie probably didn't need to be at her best to win a modest affair at Ludlow last month. Glen Countess is entitled to respect, however, as she's improved on her fourth at Huntingdon and Whichever was second over this trip at Doncaster last time. Hurricane Milly will strip fitter for her run at Fontwell but this looks a little easier than the races that KINDLY NOTE has contested so far over timber and Emma Lavelle's mare gets the vote.
