Verdict

SWINGBRIDGE found a warm Cheltenham contest beyond him last time but had been in good form earlier and is actually 1lb lower than when winning at Perth in September. The ground is a slight worry but he should have a fitness edge over his rivals so gets the vote here. Progress Drive loves it here and he still has scope over fences so rates the main threat. Kimberlite Candy is another who is progressing over fences and also merits consideration.
