In depth
Verdict
Molly Carew was in good form in novice company around this time a year ago but hasn't done as well as expected in handicaps. The lightly-raced MISS TYNTE has never won but has been racing on unsuitable heavy ground and can do better. She gets the nod in a moderate affair even though Lagavara won a Leicester handicap in this grade in December and has been racing in slightly better company. Pretty Reckless didn't run well on her return to hurdles at Market Rasen and Diva Du Maquis hasn't shown enough in maiden and novice company to merit consideration.
