Verdict
Macha and Kalzari are imports from France debuting for David Pipe. The former has won twice on the Flat but the latter scored over hurdles in September. Instant De Bonheur and stablemate Unfinished Busines are both newcomers but ANGELS LANDING (NAP) won on the Flat at Kempton last month and placed at Ludlow on her recent hurdling bow. Ian Williams’ filly showed enough to suggest she can win one of these events and gets the vote. Cirrus and Pump It Up failed to figure on their respective hurdling debuts and it remains to be seen if Lady Pacifico takes to the obstacles.
