Just a word about the current favourite.

“I’m very excited about her as I think she is one of my better prospects to be honest with you. Not many win two bumpers over here. I think she is well above average and I would be really disappointed if she didn’t make into a significantly better horse now going over hurdles. She will start at Exeter on November 18 in a National Hunt mares’ novices’ hurdle over two and a quarter miles which is a fabulous track for her. There is then a Listed mares’ novices’ hurdle at Haydock back over two miles and three furlongs. If that all goes well you would love to end up in the Jane Seymour at Sandown in February as she copes well with the mud, and I think she is quite a strong stayer.“Queens Gamble won her bumpers with a smart turn of foot whereas Jasmine Bliss won hers by out galloping the others. She is well above average.”

It looked as though a Harry a Derham was being grossly optimistic after a fairly promising second at Lingfield was followed by a desperately disappointing run at Ffos Las in January. Though I think that run can be written off because HD’s horses were woefully underperforming at that time as a result of his gallop being washed away at the end of November by storm Bert. Since then she has had a couple of easy wins achieving a personal best in the last one at Southwell.

All those runs were Class4 and this race is a Grade2 and massive jump for her to cope with. The market will be interesting.
