Verdict
The racecourse experience of Elle Roseador may prove decisive here over newcomers Wonder Wings and Peppercorn Prince whose respective stables have been worth following this term. Elle Roseador made a lot of the running on her debut at Wincanton, eventually finishing fourth behind Forever Dream. She did not go unbacked and proved to be best of the outsiders, so would be entitled to win a moderate affair such as this. Gary Moore is sure to have Wonder Wings tuned up for his debut, while Peppercorn Prince comes from a yard that looks to be going places and will no doubt pay to follow when going hurdling. Gerry Enright rode many a winner round here as a jockey and will no doubt get as much pleasure from seeing Missdmena run well. He has certainly booked a future star to do the steering in James Davies, and any moves in the market should be noted.
