Verdict
Hope's Wishes has been running well over fences and it would be no surprise to see a prominent showing here but SHADOW’S GIRL (NAP) probably need only reproduce one of her last two runs at Leicester or Taunton to take this, though Riviere Argentee ran easily her best race so far over hurdles at Kempton last month and has to go on the short-list. It’s more difficult to make a case for any of the others.
