Race preview
TAKE NO CHANCES lost little in defeat when runner-up to a progressive rival at Market Rasen last month. A similar bid may be enough to see Dan Skelton's mare regain the winning thread in what looks an open contest. Ex-stablemate Smiling Getaway made a successful yard/hurdles bow at Ludlow just before Christmas and she likely has more to offer in this discipline, while Drumlee Spud and Jaminska have the form to be involved too.
