JUST A FEELING was pulled up on her chasing bow at Worcester in the autumn but, following wind surgery, won easily off this mark over hurdles at Ludlow last weekend and is probably worth another chance. Between The Waters was placed three times last year and looks the danger, if fully wound-up, ahead of Silent Man. Goonjim has been off the track for a while but Little Windmill could benefit from a slight drop in grade.
