Verdict

Solid Strike opened his account over fences at Hexham having slipped down the weights but is back up in distance for this. Magic Of Milan is another with something to prove over this longer trip after placing over 2m5f here but Conas Taoi had Pretty Miss Mahler back in third when successful over track and trip on his penultimate start and could go well again. Chase The Wind hasn’t won since 2016 and FINAGHY AYR was last successful in 2017 though that was off a higher mark over these fences. A recent third at Hexham suggests Ian Duncan’s charge will be winning again soon and he gets the nod.
