Verdict

SPELLACY'S CROSS has made a promising start over fences and improved again upped in trip when going down only narrowly to the thriving Maciver at Clonmel 2 weeks ago. He can reverse the placings on 4 lb better terms. Another to consider is Without Exception, who had excuses on both his starts over fences so far and is potentially well handicapped having won over hurdles last month off 2 lb lower.
