Henrietta has done nothing wrong and is a confident choice to complete a hat-trick at the expense of Kindle Ball, with Dd's Glenalla the only other runner to consider. Henrietta has not really been tested in two visits to Towcester, winning with something in hand on both occasions, and is the form pick. The only slight drawback is the fact that the fast ground might just negate her stamina, but she is in fine fettle and should score again before eventually going chasing, which is the plan. Kindle Ball has won two of her last three outings but was made to work hard at Southwell last time and does not look in the same league as the selection. She does however make more appeal than Dd's Glenalla who folded tamely when fancied at Lingfield last time. Her stable have been in great form but it is hard to enthuse about her chances, as it is for the rest. All in all, this looks safely left to Henrietta who is a mare with a future.
