Verdict

SOUTHFIELD HARVEST advanced his form switched to a handicap when runner-up at Wincanton in December, and with this extra emphasis on stamina sure to suit, he's an appealing candidate. Sizable Sam still has some learning to do but he's progressive, with Silent Assistant completing the shortlist.

  1. SOUTHFIELD HARVEST
  2. SIZABLE SAM
  3. SILENT ASSISTANT (IRE)
