Verdict

The most fascinating runner in this contest is the Gordon Elliott-trained CAPTAIN POWER. A multiple winner down the years, he has dropped notably in the handicap in Ireland this year but now drops into a Class 7 race with a notable jockey booking in Adam Kirby. He is also entered here on Friday and at Wolverhampton on Saturday. Just An Idea had been in fair heart prior to a visit to Southwell last time. He wouldn't be the first to not handle the Fibresand so makes the shortlist whilst N Over J has run well off higher marks in the past and has joined the Mick Appleby yard.
