Verdict

Plenty of runners, but also a fair bit of 'dead-wood' lower down the weights, whilst a few of those nearer the top of the handicap including the likes of Maxed Out King, Indian Voyage and The Orange Rogue appear a trifle high in the weights at present. Therefore, the pair to concentrate upon are the unexposed young chasers Well Above Par and RONN THE CONN. The former looks very much the type to do well over the larger obstacles for Lucinda Russell, and has the conditions to his liking assuming that he's fully recovered from his tumble at Ayr. However, the latter named was inked firmly into the notebook after a pleasing stable/chasing debut at Hexham last month, and should cope with a subsequent 5lb rise in the weights over an arguably more suitable 2m4f trip.
  1. Ronn The Conn
  2. Well Above Par
  3. Grove Silver
