Verdict

Consistency hasn't been MISTER WATSON's strong suit but he was unlucky not to make a winning return/chase debut at Bangor in November, slithering on landing last and losing considerable momentum/ground. Given a short break since, he gets the nod to confirm the promise of that run. Recent Southwell scorer Generous Day and Kim Baley's interesting French recruit Mot Pour Mot head up the dangers.
