Verdict
Lord Getaway’s second at Southwell was a huge improvement on previous efforts but he’s 4lb higher now. Church Hall wasn’t beaten far back over hurdles at Newton Abbot last month and Isabel Williams won twice on Market Road last season. LADY MIX (NAP) gets good ground for the first time since a close-up third at Doncaster in December off a pound higher mark and can open her account over timber as Mortens Leam still looks too high in the weights. Frankie Rapper was third over 2m4f here in the autumn but still beaten 28 lengths.
