Verdict
Let Me Be was last of three in novice company at Market Rasen after winning a maiden at that track in May. Tardree makes more appeal having taken well to hurdles this summer but he does have a double penalty. Sligo maiden winner BELLA BLISS (NAP) is on an upward curve and she can outpoint the locally-trained Zumbi in receipt of 7lb.
