Verdict

Barry Geraghty has never won on FORTHEFUNOFIT (NAP) but travels over specifically to ride the recent Stratford hurdles winner. Jonjo O'Neill's charge is 5lb lower over fences and must have every chance of completing a double. Ange Des Malberaux has won three of his last four, two of them over fences, and has only gone up 3lb for scoring at Perth. Sharp Response, a winner at Catterick in February, was beaten a long way on his recent return to action and may need another run. Mahler Lad ran a shocker when last seen at Hexham in June but his earlier victory at Towcester would put him in the picture while Ballymalin has the form to win this at his best though became a bit erratic last season.
