Verdict
A risky contest for having a punt and stakes are best kept to a minimum. Lady Ward settled better than her hurdles debut last time to get off the mark over hurdles but is no certainty to repeat the effort. Rogue Spirit and Oulton Broad are not the most consistent of performers but may play a strong hand in this company - whereas, Indigo Beach and Gee Bee Boy also have claims on the pick of their form.
