Fantastic Lady

Selected at: 3/1

Fantastic Lady isn’t always the most consistent performer but she has more than enough ability to win this if on a going day. Her two-and-a-half-length victory in the Oaksey Chase at Sandown in April is the best form on offer and the weights suggests she’s in a good position.
