FormscanBy Michael Graham - This looks a good opportunity for HARMONYA MAKER and she can give weight away to her five rivals. Gordon Elliott's mare put in arguably her best performance to date when beating the odds-on favourite in a Grade 2 mares' novices' chase over a shorter trip at this venue last month. British-raider Marsh Wren won half of her eight races over flights and is going the right way over fences. She has risen to a mark of 131 on the back of victories at Warwick and Uttoxeter and a runner-up berth in a Listed race at Wincanton. Law Ella did win her beginners' chase here, but has plenty to find with Harmonya Maker after finishing fourth behind her in that aforementioned Grade 2.
