Verdict

Twotwothree scored over the course and distance last October before following up at Huntingdon. He's looked a few pounds high subsequently and the concession of weight to RIZZARDO (NAP) looks beyond him. The latter made all for a convincing victory over an odds-on chance at Southwell and a similar effort would probably be good enough from 5lb higher. Ettila De Sivola only had three to beat when scoring at Newcastle in December and was beaten a long way on his reappearance at Carlisle while Caboy, four-times a winner in France, may need a bit further though testing ground will aid his cause.
