        Verdict

        Red Current won this in 2011 but hasn't raced for more than a year. Paple Blessing has his first run for David Bridgwater while Well Owd Mon was well behind Glens Wobbly here in June. The latter beat four rivals over course and distance nine days ago and is only 2lb higher but has a bit to find with Vertueux on their run together here last year. The top weight has been out of sorts this term, however, while Sir Tyto didn't beat much at Brighton last time over shorter. HALLING'S WISH (NAP) has developed into a decent hurdler. He could be the one to beat here if translating that improvement to the Flat as he's still relatively unexposed.
