TREAD SOFTLY NOW (4) comes here off a nice win 15 days back in a hurdle (3400m) at Carlisle. That result was on the back of a solid second in a hurdle (3400m) at Carlisle two starts ago. Major player again. ANAMANDA (5) took a tumble in a hurdle (4300m) at Ayr two starts back. Bounced back last time when she found a couple better, beaten 3.5 lengths, in a hurdle (4800m) at Musselburgh. Cannot be left out on the latest performance. WINDS OF WINTER (7) is still a maiden but has finished in the placings at her last two, most recently when second in a hurdle (3600m) at this track. Had plenty of chances but looks well placed here and rates among the main hopes. OUR GIRL SAL (6) did well to clock-in third two back in a point to point (4800m) at Borris House P2p then improved sharply to record a big win in a point to point (4800m) at Durrow P2p 30 days ago, arriving 6 lengths ahead of her rivals. Hard to knock the recent efforts.
