Race preview
Paul Nicholls trained the first three winners on this card 12 months ago, five on the day in total, and he should enjoy another profitable afternoon. Fasol and MISS ALTEA BLUE are the ones to focus on, both trained by Nicholls, and the latter edges it on the basis that she's a C&D winner having her first start since undergoing wind surgery. Add to that Harry Cobden takes the ride and she's expected to get the better of Taunton scorer Fasol. Fight My Fire might be the one for third.
