Little Glenshee had been in fine form over fences until unseating at this venue last time and can race off the same mark back over timber. But FAIRYTALE THEATRE (NAP) is preferred today as she has been competing in pattern company since beaten two lengths in a handicap at Sandown. Spirit Oscar and Nosey Box were both due to run here yesterday but would have a shout if taking part. Knocklayde Sno Cat looks the pick of Stuart Crawford's runners but Cloudante has yet to shown any benefit for her slide down the weights.
