Verdict

Ascot winner Worthy Farm could have more to offer having seemingly idled after hitting the front there; his penalty is mostly negated with a claim and he's respected. Captain Drake and TOMKEVI were battling for a win at Southwell last time when the latter crashed out. His jumping wasn't perfect throughout, but Conor O'Farrell takes over here and may be able to assist in that regard. He's a pound better off now, and might have won the argument last time had he stood up. This is wide open, ensuring the consistent Teescomponents Lad joins Burrows Park and course specialist Taxmeifyoucan in completing the shortlist.
  1. Tomkevi
  2. Worthy Farm
  3. Burrows Park
