Verdict
Rose N Alice gets the confident vote in this poor novices hurdle with Storm Haven and Shropshirelass rating the main dangers. The selection is a chase winner in her native Ierland, looks to have been found a good opportunity to make a winning debut and under conditions that suit she is hard to oppose. Storm Haven rates the main danger on her latest second behind Nokoma but she will do well to give weight and a beating to the selection. Shropshirelass was a fair second behind Wooly Bully last time, that form has since been franked and under similar conditions here she will not be far away. Of the remainder Fantastisch is from a shrwed in-form yard and should be watched in the market but he will be handicaped after this run and that iis where his future may lie and for the winner we return to Rose N aLICE.
