Verdict

Crystal D'Ainay was a high-class hurdler who wasn't as good over fences and has struggled even at this level and the veteran Burntoakboy is a light of other days. Kornati Kid went backwards after winning the Grade 2 Towton Novices' Chase at Wetherby though he's recently won between the flags, but Over The Creek likes it around here and a recent run will have put him straight. ASK AGAIN is a prolific point-to-point winner and showed that regulation fences hold no fears when scoring over the C&D last April. He's fit enough and can take this, though the useful Keenan's Future would be a major threat if anywhere near his peak after a very long break.
