Verdict

BROKEN ICE looks most interesting off a 2 lb lower mark than when successful in last year's corresponding race. October Hill and Drumlee Myth are the most likely dangers, ahead of hat-trick seeking Dalileo.

2	Back to something like her solid Taunton maiden form when off the mark at Ffos Las in May. Didn't go with her usual fluency when 3 lengths second at Uttoxeter 7 weeks on from a fall latest. Has improved since her sole previous attempt over 3m and looks interesting if getting the trip. 2nd Pick 2 October Hill (Ire) Jockey: Rian Corcoran Trainer: David Pipe J: Rian Corcoran T: David Pipe	97	-	-	-	19%	9/2

7	Promise in points/bumpers earlier in his career. Left previous hurdle efforts behind when winning on reappearance at Cartmel (2¾m) last month. Up 4 lb and likely player if in similar form on second start back from absence. 3rd Pick 7 Drumlee Myth (Ire) Jockey: Mr N. Mcparlan Trainer: Sean Mcparlan, Ireland J: Mr N.
