Verdict
CLODHOPPER couldn't cope with higher-rated rivals in a seller at Southwell last time but scored over C&D on her penultimate start. She's taken to go in again back in handicap company as she's already beaten Flying Kitty, Very First Blade and Periwinkle Way and they'll do well to reverse running. Stablemates Sweetest Friend and Gem Of Wisdom have plenty of scope and look dangerous, while Littlecote Lady is back on a winning mark and should be in the firing-line.
