Verdict

Course and distance form can be more significant at Warwick than some other National Hunt venues given its idiosyncratic nature and that may give the edge to ROUGH NIGHT who won with plenty in hand here last time out. Joke Dancer is an obvious danger but his habit of jumping right is off-putting. Ashoka has been in no sort of form in two recent runs but the yard are in form and the eight-year-old completes the shortlist with back to back wins at the start of the summer still fresh in the memory.
