Verdict

MISTRESS FOX is going the right way and the slightly shorter trip might prove beneficial to this keen-going mare. She gets the verdict over Easter Icon, who was running well when departing through no fault of his own last time, and recent Ffos Las winner Kates Choice.

7	Very easy to back but she produced a much improved effort when second of 9 in handicap hurdle at this course (2¾m, good) 35 days ago. Drop back in trip should suit this headstrong sort and she can do better again for an in-form yard. 1st Pick 7 Mistress Fox Jockey: Bradley Harris Trainer: Neil Mulholland J: Bradley Harris T: Neil Mulholland	100	-	-	-	17%	5/1
