Race preview
PUMP IT UP was outclassed on her most recent outing at Lingfield but the ease in grade on this occasion represents a solid opportunity for the filly to get her head in front. She finished second at Doncaster on her penultimate start, when seeming to benefit from the reapplication of blinkers having won in them on the Flat at Windsor, and a repeat of that effort may prove to be good enough. Tiki Fire was a place behind the selection on Town Moor and she must enter calculations, while Hang Up is respected on her hurdling bow having displayed some ability on the level.
