Verdict
Though successful in a point and a bumper, Hawthorn Cottage was well beaten on her hurdles bow and faces a stiff task in this. Culture De Sivola won a handicap here last year and was a fair third on her reappearance at Uttoxeter. Annie Mc was very impressive in a Grade 2 handicap at Newbury in March and would go close with a similar effort, though consistency is not her strong point. Papagana won a Listed contest at Doncaster in March and may be capable of better still while Fleur Irlandaise was a 100/1 winner here two weeks ago over shorter. PRINTING DOLLARS wasn’t disgraced over a trip too short at Cheltenham when in need of the run. This is more her trip and Warren Greatrex’ team is in good form.
