Verdict
Lady Lap Dancer was a fair sixth behind Zamat here last time out in a novices hurdle on similar ground. The filly from the Bang-in-form Mary Reveley will find this easier and is the TEAMTALK selection. Ashtoreth rates the main danger on his debut third behind Ryders Storm but appears to have regressed since. The Count was placed in one mile handicaps on the Flat but his style of running suggests he will fail to see out this trip. Katies Dolphin showed little on the flat and needs to improve while the same comment applies to Effie Gray.
