Forecasts

Loch Linnhe (7/4), Aptly Put (15/8), Let's Get At It (4/1), It's All About Me (4/1), Boruma (11/2), The Sting (10/1), Nobuttaboy (33/1)

Verdict

No strong opinion is offered in a very low-key finale, but with Micky Hammond's Middleham yard seemingly about ready to set firing on all cylinders the token advice is the lowly-weighted IT'S ALL ABOUT ME. She has taken plenty of time to find her feet over hurdles but would almost certainly have won over this C&D on New Years Day but for making a bad mistake the second last (rider lost an iron). She can make the most of the weight that she receives from the likes of Aptly Put (Richard Spencer) and Let's Get At It (Olly Murphy) who on the face of things are probably no great shakes themselves.
