Verdict

LUCKOFTHEDRAW looked a chaser to follow when winning on his debut over fences at Carlisle and Nigel Twiston-Davies youngster can overcome lack of experience here to defeat more exposed rivals. There are plenty of solid rivals however if his inexperience tells and chief among them is Mcgroarty who may well have landed a hat-trick but for falling last time out. Theflyingportrait is another arriving in good form and he also has a previous C&D win to his name off this handicap mark.
