In depth
Verdict
Obviously not a race to become too heavily involved with as the form lines have been let down more times than mobile bouncy castle. However, Lady Ward has at least got her head in front lately and is holding her form well. The drying ground should be in her favour and she should go well, despite conceding weight all round. Strath Fillan, a surprise winner on the flat at Folkestone last month, fared well in maidens over hurdles last season and rates as the biggest danger. Love Potion could also go well at decent odds and may be able to take home a slice of place money.
