Mrs Hyde was a disappointing favourite at Plumpton in February and was engaged yesterday at Ludlow. Freedom Run’s second over course and distance last month looks a better effort than Dessie's Diamond’s third here a couple of weeks later and she is receiving a stone from the penalised Southwell scorer The Rocket Park. THYME HILL is a full brother to hurdle and chase winner Storming Strumpet, who also won a bumper, and Philip Hobbs’ newcomer might be good enough to make a winning start.
