Global Wonder placed at Lingfield when last on the Flat and won over hurdles last month. MUFTAKKER was having his first outing for over year when runner-up over track and trip. He may prove good enough on this occasion and is preferred to Cafe Sydney, who also went close here last time looking for her first win on the all-weather. Splash Of Verve was narrowly beaten at Chelmsford but rarely wins and the less exposed Stevie Mckeane is preferred having posted a better effort on her handicap debut.
