Verdict

Both Southfield Harvest and MUCKAMORE finished second on their respective hurdling debuts at Wincanton and Leicester last month. Nigel Twiston-Davies' charge ran into a potentially smart rival in Imperial Alcazar and this former point-to-point winner should excel upped in distance, ensuring he takes the vote. Paul Nicholls will expect more too from Southfield Harvest, who had the form of his run boosted at the weekend. Debutant Fedelta should have a future.
