In depth
Verdict
Flirtatious Girl gained the second of her bumper victories in Listed company at Sandown two years ago and, though disappointing so far over hurdles, shouldn't be given up on just yet. ROSE OF SIENA found 2m3f too far on her latest start here in November having run well over this sort of trip earlier. She has a break to overcome but could still prove too good for these. Virtuoso has been well beaten in both starts over timber while winning bumper Shelikesthelights was beaten a long way in second at Market Rasen last month.
