Verdict
Born To Please is often thereabouts but is just 1-22 over timber and MA BELLE NOIRE (NAP) makes more appeal. No stranger to carrying big weights in this grade, Harry Fry’s mare has placed in four of her last five and deserves a change of luck. Chancer Dancer is improving and was only beaten a length-and-a-quarter on a raid to Hexham earlier in the month so looks the danger.
