Verdict

This traditional end of season South Yorkshire highlight still features a plethora of classy chasers despite the unseasonal conditions. Looking Well is eligible for veterans' races nowadays and he made amends for his unfortunate Borders National mishap when scoring readily over 3m here ten-days ago, and given his proven stamina reserves should be on the premises despite a 6lb rise in the weights. However, the slightly more appealing option is the talented novice ROCKY'S TREASURE. Defending an unbeaten record on Town Moor (2-2) and with ground conditions very much favourable, he's more than capable of shouldering top-weight of 11st12lb on his first venture into handicap company.
