Verdict

MOUNTSKIP can defy a penalty and topweight to follow-up his recent Hexham win, with Pinewood Legend, Ardesia and Royal Flynn likely to get involved. The selection was the ready winner of a novices' handicap hurdle at the Northumberland track, winning by 11-lengths, for which he carries a 7lbs penalty. Trip and ground are again ideal for him and he will be tough to beat. Pinewood Legend has gone well here twice in defeat and with the ground again appearing to be against him it looks like the same fate may befall him, while Ardesia has conditions and trip to suit and is on a very handy mark when considering some of his old form. However, recent efforts suggest that this is now as good as he is and we will take him on. Royal Flynn wouldn't be at his best on fast ground and may have to settle for plugging on into the frame, while the same applies to Knight Valiant, and preference is for Mountskip.
