In depth

Verdict

Admiral Bob went close over these fences on his penultimate start but races from out of the weights again. At the other end of the handicap, DRUMHART is preferred given he won off a similar mark over track and trip at this time last year and drops back down in class today. Rufino is upped 7lb for winning at Tramore but has scope for further progress over fences while though Heaney was a well-beaten favourite in a hunter chase last time he drops further down the handicap. I'm An Izz Wizz was beaten only a neck here in March but has finished tailed off since.
