Verdict

There were positives to take from JOLIE BAIE's latest effort and she could be the answer to this trappy-looking contest. Sweet Magic hasn't fired so far this season but she's edged down to an attractive mark and will be a threat if able to bounce back. Innisfree Lass returned to form back over hurdles at Southwell and she has to be taken seriously, too.

2	Developed into a fair handicap hurdler last term, scoring at Ffos Las and Lingfield. Hasn't managed to scale those heights so far this season but latest effort at Huntingdon (25f, heavy) represented a step back in the right direction (since undergone another breathing op) and she's now 2 lb lower. 1st Pick 2 Jolie Baie (Fr) Jockey: Tom Cannon Trainer: Jo Davis J: Tom Cannon T: Jo Davis	99	-	-	-	17%	5/1

3	Yet to win a race and efforts so far this season have lacked spark. On the upside, her mark is on the slide (runner-up twice off higher marks last term) and she would have a serious chance if back to something like her best. 2nd Pick 3 Sweet Magic (Ire) Jockey: Tom Broughton Trainer: Alastair Ralph J: Tom Broughton T: Alastair Ralph	100	-	-	-	20%	4/1

1	Seemingly revived by return to hurdles when landing extended 3m Southwell handicap last month, enhancing her good record at that course in the process. 5 lb rise fair enough and of strong interest here with a capable conditional in the hot-seat. 3rd Pick 1 Innisfree Lass (Ire) Jockey: Murray Dodd Trainer: Stuart Edmunds J: Murray Dodd T: Stuart Edmunds	98	-	-	-	40%	3/2
