Verdict

Zeroeshadesofgrey was expected to run yesterday at Newbury while Padge is searching for a confidence-booster having unseated twice over fences recently. Dell' Arca didn't show much on his return to hurdling at Kempton and The Romford Pele is also better known as a chaser. Scoop The Pot was just over five lengths behind Unowhatimeanharry at Cheltenham in November but is now 11lb better so fancied to turn the tables on Harry Fry's charge, who is bidding for a four-timer. But THE EAGLEHASLANDED (NAP) has done nothing wrong this season either and wasn't beaten far off today's mark in a competitive handicap at Cheltenham last time - he can pick up the winning thread again here. Salmanazar beat a decent yardstick at Market Rasen after finishing behind Goodbye Dancer at Leicester and may be better suited by this test than his old rival.
