Verdict
Warwick winner Buildmeupbuttercup made a bold bid to follow up under a penalty at Lingfield and she should be thereabouts again here, though this is an above-average mares’ bumper. LUST FOR GLORY changed hands for £240,000 after winning a Lisronagh point-to-point in October. She has a superb pedigree for jumping and can make a winning start under Rules, though Kayf Storm is a well-bred newcomer who is a full sister to three useful jumpers. My Lady Grey’s dam won a bumper on her racecourse debut so Colin Tizzard's filly is also worth a market check.
