Verdict

HIGHLAND FLING appears the most likely winner after a good effort last out at Galway when taking the runner-up spot. He's on a decent mark again, will handle conditions and as a winner over jumps, may be able to make the most of his stamina to take this prize. Nearly Famous is worth a chance for Jessica Harrington, having won a charity race over C&D last month, while Emily Square is also likely to be involved. Massini's Trap hasn't been out since Cheltenham, but merits close attention in the betting.
