Mrsrobin, successful over track and trip on her seventh start over fences, has more on her plate today. Queens Bay is even more exposed and still chasing a first victory over the larger obstacles but LOUIS PHILLIPE is on a roll and can complete the hat-trick. The step up in distance here last time proved no problem for Linda Blackford's charge and he can again beat third Moorlands George, despite a 7lb turnaround in the weights. Oscar Fiain has his first start over fences in the country but is still preferred to Bennys Girl, who is 8lb out of the handicap.
