Formscan  - A winner on her last two outings, Babs is sure to put her experience to good use. That said, Henry Oliver's mare does require another career best in order to complete a hat-trick, with smart Flat performer SPORTINGSILVERMINE an interesting recruit to this discipline. The five-year-old boasts an official rating of 91 on the level and he could take some stopping. Fellow hurdling-debutant No Way Jay is also of interest given his stable's rude health at present.
