Verdict

Sassy Yet Classy won this contest last year under the tutelage of Gordon Elliot and this year the County Meath-based handler can land the prize with COVENTRY, who shaped well when placed a couple of times last month. Longhouse Poet was unable see out the marathon trip in the Grand National when last seen in April but he's fancied to be in the mix on returning over timber. Floueur and Robinstown are another couple who could have a say in proceedings.
