Verdict

With five last-time-out winners, this looks very competitive. MY GIFT TO YOU has improved significantly since switched to this yard, equipped with a tongue strap and partnered by Harry Cobden the last twice, bagging handicaps in this sphere at Southwell and over fences at Worcester. The 5-y-o is taken to complete the hat-trick, perhaps at the chief expense of Coal Fire. Strike of Lighting also enters calculations and Camilla's Choice needs a second look, too.
