Verdict
GINGE DE SOPHIA finished a lot closer on only her second start over timber when fourth at Uttoxeter. She may prove good enough in this given Am I Appropriate and No No Jolie were both well beaten on their respective hurdling debuts. Molly The Dolly and Potters Sapphire were both placed in bumpers early this year and are worth a second glance while Little Millie won a point-to-point in Ireland in April and debuts under Rules today for new connections.
