Verdict
Penny Mallow hasn’t won for a long time and Lazy Sunday has run four times over similar trips and only placed once, though that was last time on heavy going at Ffos Las. Both of MAD ABOUT SALLY’s wins have come over an extended 2m5f but connections are persevering with her over this trip and she may have benefited from a break. Kym Eyre won twice last month and has been successful over much further while Shesupincourt finally grabbed a deserved win over hurdles here last time and now switches her attention to fences.
