Verdict

YPSILANTI impressed when winning over 2m3f handicap chase at Doncaster at the end of January. The heavy ground was all against him next time out at Towcester and he can build on a solid second last time out by registering a second rules success here. Fellow point-to-point winner Breath Of Blighty still held chances when falling last time out and can claim second off his revised mark while Oliver's Hill can claim third following a decent effort over further last time out.
