Chepstow Race 1 - Dragonbet / Ebf Mares' 'National Hunt' Novices' Hurdle (Gbb Race)
Impressive winner last-time-out KAMILLE AU KANADA (1) can strike again. Scored tackling a three-runner 4100m maiden hurdle at Plumpton in May while showed promise in jumpers flats before that. The one to beat on form. Leading contender. PRINCESS DAY (6) will be of obvious interest making hurdle debut. Looked smart when a 4.75L jumpers flat winner over 3300m at Newbury in February. Beaten favourite attempting a G2 Aintree jumpers flat when last seen in April. Also holds course form so rates a definite player. DIVINE DIVA (4) placed in a Listed Cheltenham jumpers flat and is of obvious interest. CONNELLS CROSS (3) appears best of the rest.
