Verdict
Laura Bullion won twice in Ireland for Noel Meade but she has struggled since arriving in this country and was behind PROGRESSIVE when the latter made a pleasing return to action at Uttoxeter. Nicky Henderson’s mare is preferred to the lightly-raced Yvette Guilbert and Galah, who is in danger of becoming disappointing.
