Verdict

ANNIE HATHAWAY shaped much better than she had first time over hurdles when third at Huntingdon in December and in the hope she can use that as a platform to build on, she looks to hold excellent claims. Hurdles newcomer I C U In My Dreams may well emerge as the chief danger.

1	Failed to progress from promising start in bumpers but encouraging she shaped much better than on return/hurdles debut when third in mares' novice at Huntingdon (15.8f) back in December. That was a fair effort and she holds excellent claims in a weak race. 1st Pick 1 Annie Hathaway Jockey: Philip Armson Trainer: Alan King J: Philip Armson T: Alan King	100	-	-	-	67%

2	£80,000 Jukebox Jury mare. Irish point winner who has shown fair form when placed in a pair of bumpers here and at Newcastle either side of Christmas.

6	Fair maiden on Flat in France (stays 9.5f) but offered little both starts in juvenile hurdles for new yard so far this year. Had breathing operation since last run and she's a likely type for low-grade handicaps further down the line. 3rd Pick 6 Prettylady (Fr) Jockey: Toby Wynne Trainer: Oliver Greenall & Josh Guerriero J: Toby Wynne T: Oliver Greenall & Josh Guerriero	68	-	-	-	9%
