Formscan - JUBILEE ALPHA is smart and can give these rivals weight and a beating on her seasonal/handicap debut. Paul Nicholls' charge finished second in the Grade 2 mares' bumper at the Grand National meeting a couple of seasons ago and was good enough to win twice in Listed company over hurdles last term. There should be more to come and she can land this prize en route to stepping back up in class. Sweet Caryline is progressive enough to be of interest, despite running from 4lb out of the handicap. Others to note include Bethpage and Porter In The Park.
