Formscan - KHRISMA makes plenty of appeal on her handicap debut and has the credentials to be well ahead of her opening mark. Nicky Henderson's mare was talked up for the County Hurdle ahead of Cheltenham last week but was too low in the weights to get a run and this valuable prize appears to be well within her compass. Queenie St Clair may have been inconvenienced by a quick turnaround at Newbury and is worth another chance, while First Candidate and Beauty In The Park are both open to significant improvement.
