Verdict
Spider's Bite, 0-10 over fences, looks up against it but the remaining trio all have claims. HUNTSMANS JOG found only one too good in a couple of runs at Chepstow last month. Liam Harrison again takes off 3lb and his yard remains in cracking form so he is probably the one to beat ahead of The Macon Lugnatic, a dual winner here over hurdles and lightly raced over fences, and The Newest One, who was beaten at Warwick after scoring at Newton Abbot and has gone up a further 2lb.
