Verdict

TOPOFTHECOTSWOLDS was in front and going best before taking a nasty spill 3 out at Fakenham last month and, provided he's none the worse just over 3 weeks on, Nigel Twiston-Davies' charge can gain compensation and notch a fourth success over the larger obstacles. Via Dolorosa filled the runner-up spot on all 3 outings last month and he can continue that trend here, with Soldier of Love also fancied to go well back in handicap company.

  1. TOPOFTHECOTSWOLDS (IRE)
  2. VIA DOLOROSA (FR)
  3. SOLDIER OF LOVE
