Verdict
Ruby Rambler and Carinena were both well beaten last time having won maiden hurdles on their penultimate starts. The former drops in class for this and should finish closer but WESTERN BREEZE (NAP) is another maiden winner and was beaten only a length in a handicap at Uttoxeter last month. Mark Walford's mare gets the nod to go one better in this. Cool Baranca has a shout on her latest third at Musselburgh though that came on fast ground but the remainder are harder to fancy in their current form.
