Verdict

BELLA HAZE looks best, in what should be a very competitive opener here at Chepstow. Philip Dando's mare has now won on both her starts at the track and will be high on confidence now, so it is possible she may defy a penalty. The seven-year-old likes cut in the ground and 17 furlongs is the trip of preference for the dual bumper winner. Izita Star was a winner last time out having been runner-up on three previous occasions. The six-year-old was making only her third appearance over hurdles and she looks the type to appreciate top of the ground and should be able to score again. Flow Gently Along was in the process of running a much improved race last time out, before falling at the penultimate flight. If the filly can avoid mishap in this race she should fare well. This novices' hurdle should be dominated by two horses, but for the winner we can look no further than Bella Haze.
