Verdict

Kells Belle quickened nicely to get off the mark over hurdles at Ludlow last month and is probably capable of further improvement but she has a lot further to travel here and may be vulnerable giving weight to CHILLI ROSE. Alan King's six-year-old has taken time to come to hand this term but looked on the way back when second under a big weight in a handicap at Huntingdon last month and her stamina is already proven. Farewellatmidnight has scope but a lot more to do than when winning at Fakenham in January and Violin Davis is likely to be more of a danger judged on recent runs at Taunton and Hereford. Accordingtoeileen has shown promise in bumpers and, along with Lost Two Stars, looks the pick of the remainder.
