Aurora Vega

11st 4lb

J: Paul Townend

T: W P Mullins

It's in her blood to win at Cheltenham, as a daughter of multiple Festival winner Quevega and a sister to Facile Vega who won the Champion Bumper and finished second in a Supreme; she's not yet in their league and not by a long chalk, but she is 6-9 under rules after bagging a Grade 3 at Fairyhouse in January (2m2f, soft; has won on good); that was more workmanlike than super-stylish but she's very much in the reckoning with Paul Townend up top.
