Verdict

TIME FOR A PINT got no further than the first on his latest outing at Southwell 12 days ago yet he'd previously looked one to keep on side at this level when scoring with a bit to spare at Catterick and he earns the vote provided his jumping holds up this time. Pebbly New Moon shaped much better than the bare result on yard/chase debut at Uttoxeter in December and better can be expected. Chris Cool back over fences and Natty Night complete the shortlist.
