Formscan  - Strong Run was highly tried in bumpers last season and broke her hurdling duck at the second attempt last month. The mare can improve to go close again, but she might struggle to contain COOLANNA. The daughter of Affinisea hit the woodwork in a couple of point-to-points before streaking clear on her Rules debut at Uttoxeter, a performance that suggests she might be useful. Katie's Melody can chase the pair home.
