Verdict

Fast ground may have been an excuse for Amir Pasha when well beaten over track and trip last time and he's preferred to recent Bangor winner Kayfrou back on a soft surface. Summerlea went close here on his return to hurdling and Prime Contender nearly caused a shock when second at Towcester on his first start since 2008. Kodicil failed to last home over a longer trip at Wetherby last time but looks a threat on his earlier effort at Sedgefield, though GRATE FELLA is just preferred. The latter ran well for a long way on his comeback from a year's absence and Sue Smith's charge looks up to scoring off his current mark.
