      Verdict

      The Butcher Said made the talented Longhouse Sale pull out all the stops at Uttoxeter after winning at Southwell on his chasing bow but was receiving 6lb and is conceding weight all round here. COOL DESTINATION is a chasing type and has already won a point so his victory over hurdles at Bangor last month was a bonus. He is fancied to take this en route to better things, though Diomede des Mottes has also won between the flags and over hurdles and could make a race of it if back on song after a break. Snow Leopardess has been lightly raced in recent years but she was a Grade 2 winner over hurdles and is another to consider.
