Verdict

It's best to draw a line through LORD NAPIER's latest effort at Haydock where the ground was desperate and he was simply too eager in what was a messy race. He is well worth another chance on the strength of his solid effort at Chepstow in December. Aye Aye Charlie is lurking on a handy mark and is a much-respected main danger, while Zyon also needs considering on his chase debut.

  1. LORD NAPIER (IRE)
  2. AYE AYE CHARLIE
  3. ZYON
