Verdict
POLITACUS failed to trouble the winner when fifth in a Listed bumper at Cheltenham but that’s arguably still the strongest form on offer and Fergal O’Brien’s filly is preferred to Rogue Queen. The latter finished runner-up at Warwick while Tipperary Star went close at Catterick last time. Ottoline, Queen Annie and the returning Saint Bibiana are others worthy of a second glance while Nicky Henderson’s Call The Dance, a half-sister to a host of winners, is a newcomer to note along with Trudie Glen.
