In depth
Verdict
UNE DE LA SENIERE (NAP) was only headed at the last by a well-treated rival at Ludlow last month. The first two pulled well clear so it’s a surprise that Fergal O’Brien’s mare, a winner on soft ground at Leicester last season, has only been raised a pound and she should last home on this sharp track. Madera Mist was due to run over fences at Uttoxeter last night and none of the others have been in the best of form recently, though both Kentford Heiress and My Lady Grey have won over this trip.
