Just beaten in a soft-ground bumper at Ascot last season, KRAQUELINE has been steadily finding her feet over hurdles and this looks a good opportunity for Kerry Lee’s mare. Fairy Gem wasn’t far behind the selection at Ffos Las in October and has since finished fourth at Exeter. Gamesters Girl has hinted at ability while Don't Rightly Know could figure if fully wound-up and the newcomer Lillywave is worth a market check being a half-sister to six winners including the useful Passing Glance.
