Verdict

Orbasa disappointed when favourite at Wincanton last week and was beaten a long way in third. Tempestatefloresco has been thereabouts off similar marks since winning at Newton Abbot in August while Mccabe Creek was still in contention when unseating three fences from home at Wincanton last time and could go well. But DEGOOCH ran well in a Listed chase at Wetherby in October and he gets a tentative vote dropping back down in class on his return to action.
