Verdict

Sorbet was second off this mark at Fakenham in November and Sashenka found only one too good at Hereford a month earlier and has run twice on the all-weather since but the handicapper appears to have a firm grip on Could Be Trouble. UCANAVER has gone up 3lb for finishing second to an improver at Southwell in December but might still be the one to be on as Jersey Lady has a lot to prove at present. Notnowlinda is 2-3 over hurdles but makes her handicap debut and she disappointed when upped in trip at Cheltenham while Malaita is proving hard to place.
