Verdict

Some very infrequent winners at the foot of the weights, so you don't really need to stray too far from the top of the list for the most likely winner, further more so with February's Newcastle scorer Brown Trix seeking to bounce back after breaking a blood vessel at Market Rasen latest. ACHILL ROAD BOY was a winner over hurdles here on this day last year, and is well-weighted over fences if electing to put his best foot forward. He rates as the selection with nagging doubts about the fencing prowess of Orioninverness, and it could be the increasingly well handicapped Rose Dobbin trained Can't Pay Won't Pay who fills the runner-up berth.
