Verdict
Coillte Eile won this in 2019 but could only manage third last year behind a Dan Skelton-trained winner. MARTHA BRAE made a winning debut for the latter when successful at Exeter earlier in the month and can defy an 8lb rise having tumbled down the weights in the past year. Shantou Sunset landed a double when scoring at Newton Abbot but looked fortunate on that occasion having been left in the lead at the last while Go Millie Go unseated at Fakenham on her chasing debut when still in contention and reverts to hurdling along with Get The Appeal, who is fitted with headgear today.
