Tara's Honour made a promising debut over 1m6f at Fontwell and will be suited by this longer trip and likely stronger gallop. Popping Along made a bright start at Uttoxeter in May and has been unable to handle testing conditions in two subsequent runs so should do better. Philip Hobb's newcomer Kayf Willow will attract attention while Legend Lady is out of a mare who won three times on the level. She should have enough pace as should Little Acorn, an expensive purchase and out of a very smart mare who won a bumper and scored over hurdles. Mighty Tigress is another to keep an eye on but the vote goes to CHOSEN DESTINY, whose dam has already produced several winners including two in bumpers.
