Verdict

COTSWOLD WAY proved a disappointment when last seen 7 months ago but he's one of the best of these over hurdles and has already proved he's just as good over fences. Pacify made a satisfactory start over fences at Uttoxeter 2 weeks ago and should come on for that, while it's still early days over fences for Fox Pro, who is useful over timber.
