MOUTARDE was far from disgraced in a Grade 2 at Cheltenham recently and should take a bit of stopping with his sights lowered. Our Lil shaped quite well on her hurdle debut and is in the obvious threat to Anthony Charlton's charge.

Verdict
Modest Flat winner who almost certainly achieved little when landing a 2-finisher event at Leicester on her hurdle debut last Monday. Surely vulnerable under a penalty.
