Formscan - This can once again go the way of ZAMBELLA, who has won this contest for two years running, including a restaged renewal at Carlisle last November. The eight-year-old may not have an excellent record fresh, but she loves soft ground and her stable could hardly be be in any better form at present. Placed in a strong renewal of the Mares' Chase at the Cheltenham Festival, Pink Legend has won twice since and must enter calculations, along with La Renommee, who was an impressive winner on her penultimate outing at Ludlow.
