        Verdict

        A competitive heat with a number of in-form performers bidding to follow-up. Scented Air looks potentially well-treated in relation to her hurdles form. She has been penalised for a recent win in a weak mares race and will need to find more now that she takes on the boys. Prideway has to be respected on the way she slammed Miss Glory Be over a mile. That said, she is not the most consistent performer and never looked like following up at Southwell last time out. Spanish Star invariably threatens to pop up in a race like this. He gets on well with this rider but looks just about held by the handicapper at present. The combination of Ian Wood and Tom Best teamed up to win a similar event at Lingfield and Most Saucy, who finally got his head up at Lingfield after a series of near-misses, is selected. He seems to handle all three all-weather tracks and if he is kept close to the pace (he was well outpaced on a previous visit), he has to take the beating. Any money for Direct Reaction would be interesting. He used to race in Dubai over this trip and is very well in on his old BHB mark. Gaye Kelleway's team are in good form at the moment and there could be an improvement now that nine furlongs is tried.
