In depth

Verdict

Cabaret Queen won at Market Rasen in October but found one too good at Wetherby last time. She looks vulnerable carrying a penalty with a couple of these capable of taking advantage. Our Belle Amie was runner-up over 2m at Wetherby on her recent hurdling debut but OSCAR STAR was second over 2m4f at Plumpton when giving the impression today’s longer trip would suit and she gets the nod. Hayley Belle and Little Millie have both won point-to-points but the latter was well beaten when second on her hurdling bow.
