Verdict
Competitive for its type this opener and we'll take Lady Hopeful to follow up her recent course and distance win from Leah's Pride and Chantelle's Dream. The selection doesn't have the best of draws, coming from one wider than last time, but she does have good finishing speed in this class and provided she does not get too far behind she can follow up now she has confidence. Also confident will be Leah's Pride, who led them a merry dance and held on well at Lingfield last week, beating the better drawn but late finisher Chantelle's Dream in the process. On 2lb better terms and with a better draw, Chantelle's Dream may be able to win that battle, but Lady Hopeful can get home in front of them both.
