Verdict

Just Jennings jumped poorly on her hurdling debut and will need to show vast improvement in fluency to challenge. SAINTLY LADY is starting to get the hang of jumping and Peter Bowen has a 20% record with hurdles entries here over the past five seasons. She gets the vote after a good run to finish second at this course last time. The main challenge may come from Ciannte who has won points contests in Ireland and was a National Hunt flat winner last time at Perth.
