Verdict
Hackney Diamonds has made the frame twice since a Southwell triumph last month and should be in the thick of the action again. Little Miss India took a big step back in the right direction when touched off at Lingfield, but this can go the way of ZENATO. The Fergal O'Brien-trained five-year-old registered a double over hurdles back in the autumn and can capitalise on what could be a lenient rating back in this sphere.
Expert View Verdict
In form HACKNEY DIAMONDS gets the verdict here. She was let down by a slow start last time but still ran well and the form of her win last month has been boosted significantly. With her jockey's claim here she is racing off the same mark and can defeat Little Miss India who was just out-battled late by a strong stayer over 12f last time. She arrives in good form and can fill the places with recent hurdles winner Zenato who hasn't been seen in this sphere for a while but could be on a generous mark.
