Verdict

Competitive fayre and Skipthecuddles is undoubtedly the class horse in the field if he can get back on track after a disappointing reappearance run. Back on song, he would very much be feared, though the suggestion is the unexposed RED RISING. Dan Skelton's runners continue to show good form and this eyecatching novices' winner from last season surely has more to come than he showed on his reappearance. Rolling Maul will find this company less taxing than some recent runs and this hardy perennial could be thereabouts again, while Mon Palois, Zero Grand and Nautical Nitwit are others to consider.
