Verdict

Last year’s winner Oliver’s Hill faces a much stiffer task this time around despite winning the same Fontwell race that he did last year prior to taking this but his mark looks a stiff one now and one of two of these could be progressive. Valhalla made a promising comeback at Newton Abbot last time and will be better for that run but it’s the duo of COPAIN DE CLASSE and Casablanca Mix who look to have that little bit of quality. The former has now had wind surgery and that should see him fulfil his promise while the latter lurks on what could be a very lenient mark given her form last year. Robinshill also enters the equation if he can tidy up his jumping, his yard are in good form.
