MOUNTAIN LEOPARD can overhaul her rivals in the Bet & Watch At planetsportbet.com Conditional Jockeys' Handicap Hurdle (2.10) over three miles at Southwell.
Winner of a bumper four years ago this eight-year-old has had just nine starts since, but has run consistently well over hurdles, having finished runner-up three times.
Her last run was in back in May over two and a half miles at this course, when a two-and-a-quarter-length second behind an odds-on shot.
Venetia Williams, who is currently in cracking form, sends the mare over a longer trip, which looks the right move.
A double looks on the cards for the Herefordshire-based trainer with HILL OF TARA in the Get Emma's Offers At PlanetSportBet Novices' Handicap Hurdle (3.40) over two and a half miles.
The six-year-old has improved as the year has progressed, beginning the new season with a win at Ffos Las on his handicap debut, prior to his best performance to date when a facile 18-length victor at Leicester eight days ago over an extended two and a half miles on heavy ground.
