Verdict
SHE'S DA ONE was well behind Red Penny over course and distance in January, when Sisterbrooke was pulled up, and is worse off at the weights today. But she left that run well behind when finding plenty to get off the mark at Taunton nine days ago and Paul Nicholls' mare has much more scope than her old rival. She's also less exposed than Spellbound, though the latter's defeat of Taniokey at Exeter was probably a decent effort and she shouldn't be dismissed out of hand. Miss Serious makes her hurdling debut and may need more time.
