HI HO SILVIA has had an eventful time since scoring over the C&D last month but should get back on the winning trail. A subsequent victory at Plumpton was followed by mishaps at Towcester and Fakenham but providing she can get round without problems this is within her capabilities. Glan Lady was a major disappointment when strongly fancied at Newton Abbot following her very easy success at Hereford and she is surely better than that while Philip Kirby is likely to have Ton-Chee geared up to win this for the second year in succession, though the veteran has been in poor form recently. Risk Challenge has struggled at the weights since scoring at Ffos Las in August and Melange's only success over hurdles came in a seller here in 2009.
