SILVER SPINNER is the most interesting in this big field and gets the vote ahead of Aussie Deal and Cherry Flora. Alan King's mare has shown a preference for soft ground, with both of her successes coming on this surface. Her recent beating of Wychwoods Legend at Towcester reads well and she should run well despite her penalty. Aussie Deal has finished second on both of her two starts, and must be considered on her jumping bow; she's related to winners over hurdles and fences. Marsh Court was a winner Fontwell at 16/1 back in October but hasn't fired since including in handicap company. Cherry Flora and Kateal have both shown signs of ability, whilst Rhinestone Ruby and Rith Bob are others who need consideration having run well in bumper races without success. Open, but Silver Spinner can win it.
