Verdict
The Toojumpa has only completed once in her last five starts though won at Worcester on that occasion and can figure with a clear round. GOLDEN ROBIN is of more interest having won off a higher mark over hurdles and finishing third over track and trip on a recent chasing debut. Sue Smith’s mare gets the vote given Leicester runner-up Top And Drop hasn’t raced since February and Whatsdastory looks no nearer winning over fences and is fitted with blinkers.
