Nicky Henderson’s bumper winner POLLY’S PURSUIT (NAP) was a little keen on her hurdling debut at Southwell but was only beaten half-a-length by the well-regarded Irish Roe and any improvement on that will make her tough to beat here as she probably has more scope than the likes of eight-race maiden Passmore and Undisputed. Glanvilles Guest is preferred to Miss Fleming of the remainder.
