HOLLY BIRD (3) is starting to race consistently with two placed efforts in three starts culminating in an impressive 5. 5L victory attempting a Newcastle handicap hurdle. Can double up. VANILLA DANCER (4) also turned a pair of placed efforts into a 1L success last time out tackling a 1m7 1/2f handicap hurdle at Catterick having finished second at Doncaster prior. Expected to challenge. DISCO ANNIE (2) placed once the past six attempts. That was a third at Ludlow three starts back. Holds winning course and distance form and improvement anticipated. QUEEN ROSLYN (8) makes some attraction towards bottom of the weights.
