MISS LAMB (NAP), a decent bumper, was third on her only start over hurdles last season and needed the run on her belated reappearance at Wetherby. She has her sights lowered here and can show today’s rivals a clean pair of heels. Nikhi, who won twice on the Flat, is the obvious danger having followed up a third at Ffos Las with a second at Hereford. Ninetofive hinted at ability at Kelso in the autumn and Caithness wasn’t beaten far on his second start at Newcastle and should improve further.
