Verdict
Several won their penultimate starts are looking to get back on track. Rouergate is a novice winner outmatched in a Grade 2 at Cheltenham earlier this month while Litterale Ci won a handicap at Ludlow before struggling at Cheltenham in January. SHE’S GINA picked-up a novices’ race at Lingfield earlier but fell in a tougher handicap than this at Fontwell last time when still in contention. She gets another chance today with the unexposed Shee's Lucky also worth a second glance in a tight contest.
