R Hollinshead
A winner of a hurdle race at 2m on good ground. Well beaten at 28-1 behind Like Ice when fifth of 10 on her latest outing in a hurdle race here over 2m 6f (good) last month.
Most have some sort of chance but if TWEEDLEDRUM can get her act together then she could well shed her maiden tag. She ran a strange sort of race last time at Fontwell, initially travelling well before losing her place and then rallying strongly late on. Her previous effort behind Right Step at Kempton was a meritorious performance and hopefully she'll get a good pace to aim at here. Josh's Dreamway makes appeal from a workable handicap mark whilst Seedless has claims at her best too. C&D winner Illysantachristina is a paragon of consistency but may just need the run.
