Verdict
Quinta Do Mar won this racing off the same mark last year but IRISH HILL may prove too good. The latter has undergone wind surgery since last in action and 10lb claimer Freddie Gingell rode a winner for Paul Nicholl’s red-hot yard a week ago. Thibault faced a stiffer task at Cheltenham last time while Amelia's Dance landed a double at Taunton in January and has recent third at Plumpton under her belt. Aggagio is fit from the Flat though is 6lb higher than when last successful over timber.
