Verdict

Saint Breiz has failed to cope under a penalty in a couple of subsequent starts since scoring at Wincanton. Towcester winner Spyder also looked beaten in third when falling at Fontwell last time, so the vote goes to NED STARK. Beaten a couple of lengths by Mosspark at Exeter in November, the latter went on to win a Listed contest and that form looks strong enough in this company. Alan King's charge gets the nod with Monksgold looking best of the rest after a better effort at Wincanton last month.
