Verdict

Dan Skelton looks to hold the aces in this second division with SUNRAY SHADOW selected to make a winning start over obstacles having overcome inexperience to land a C&D bumper back in the spring. Seemingly the choice of Harry Skelton, he can get the better of stablemate Ronnies Rules, who bagged a hat-trick in bumpers at Stratford over the summer. Diamond Geezer, who hasn't been seen since his debut 10 months ago, can edge out Don Virginia for third.
