Verdict

Sublime Talent represents last year's successful stable but was possibly flattered by his latest second at Newton Abbot and doesn't win very often nowadays. Kitchapoly is hard to catch right while Vinnie The Fish will probably find at least one too good again. CLARAGH NATIVE was disappointing last month at Bangor but an earlier second at Aintree is the best form on offer in this and he should go close if back on song. Endeavor was second over hurdles here last month and King's Chorister likewise on Saturday, though is 6lb out of the handicap in this.
