Verdict
Programme Girl is taken to get losses back, with Nodforms Victoria, Jass and Middleton Dene seen as the main dangers. Programme Girl has already made her mark, having made a winning bumper debut at Ayr last November before following up at Ayr in May. She failed to defy a penalty when narrowly beaten in her hat-trick bid at Perth in June, but she did well to get as close as she did to the winner on what was pretty fast ground. The return to these slightly easier conditions will suit, and as she goes well fresh, can return with a bang. Nodforms Victoria rallied to open his account at Hexham recently but will do well to give weight to the selection, and the same comment applies to Huntingdon winner Jass who has a 266-day absence to overcome. Of the rest, Middleton Dene is worth a mention, having been acquired by Duncan Davison, and he should give daughter Rose a nice ride, but is one for the future. All in all, this looks best left to Programme Girl.
